I solely wanted to read this book over the location. I absolutely love Colorado even though survival horror is usually not my thing. The problem? I don't feel like the author knew Colorado at all. I looked it up after things felt off and realized the author is Australian living in Scotland so that explains the disconnect. I think this setting would have been better somewhere familiar. Survival horror is a hard genre and you really have to know the landscape to write it.
