    We probably will find out, since she is almost the star of the books

    I'm sure that's just running title.

    I started this book last night, and so far I think it might be riddled with the most mistakes i've ever seen in a professionally published novel. Did they decide to save money by skipping an editor? They jump back and forth between the apocalypse being 'over two years old' and sometimes 'just over one year old', first Martinez has an x-wife, and then later he was 'never married', the governor lost his left eye to michonne, and then shortly after recovering from his injuries, I read this sentence: "Phillip closes his right eye and peers down the barrel of the gun with his left"....I mean come on guys, really??? lol. Jay's writing style seems quite over the top this time around as well, with several quite silly analogies and redundancies. A few paragraphs ago he wrote something along the lines of "the governor correctly stated that we were in trouble, and he was right".

    Okay, that's my rant. This has the feel of a book that was quickly thrown together, possibly due to a last minute decision to split The Fall of the Gov into parts. With the price of these hardcover versions [which are hardly more than a novella at 250 pages, double spaced with sizeable font], you'd think a bit tighter editing would be in order. After I paid for this book, I found it in its entirety online, for free, and would be glad to share. ;).

    I'm really hoping they shape up a bit for the future books.

    they might've misspelled the title. Should be the governor of the fall.

    The style suffers a lot more than the others. It was a big mistake to split imo. The 1st two were much better and great reads. These two suffered form being in time with the books. I though half of part 1 was boring because I already knew happened down to exact wording...

    I was annoyed they messed up the kill them all line! I enjoyed finding out more of what happened that we didn't know of but it could have been a prologue in this lilly series coming up imo. If they tighten up again that could be really interesting.
