Gratuitous deaths and endless running soured the second half of the book

The Knife of Never Letting Go  - Patrick Ness

5 stars for the first half of the book. 1 star for the second. I really, really enjoyed the beginning. Loved the world and characters, especially Manchee. Then, for me, it went downhill. I found the premise that explains the motivation of the pursuing army to be flawed, and flimsy in logic. Gratuitous deaths and endless running soured the second half of the book. I doubt I'll continue the series, but I'll certainly seek out more of this author's work.
