Maybe enjoyed was the wrong word. But it was a book that I wanted to read more of; I had empathy with the characters and wanted (at least some), to survive. I was fascinated by the scope of the story -- all happening within a day -- and simultaneously fascinated and terrified by the treatment meted out to the characters. Really rather amazing affect on a 14/15 year old boy.
