* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy: This is a common complaint that people have about the book. For some, the ending doesn't make all of the bad things that happened worth it.

* JerkassWoobie: BZ stands out as one of the most sympathetic characters in the story despite how he treats Helene. There is arguably more humanity in the chapter where he dies than there is in all of the other chapters combined.
