The premise of the trilogy is fun, and the contrast of choices by all of the different authors is interesting. For me, the book became more depressing as it went on simply because you're exposed so rapidly to all these downfall scenarios. I also worry that it's too many stories such that when I get to their associated second and third parts in the next two books, I won't have a strong recollection of the characters or plot.
