Overall entertaining, but with too much dependence on accurate control of a whole population by those with seemingly little control over them...
Just finished the trilogy (Don't worry, I don't post spoilers) but how they're being controlled/manipulated to fulfill the plan is adequately explained in book three (IMO). I enjoyed the books but saw the 'revelation' at the end coming a mile off.
