The first one was my favorite as well, but I enjoyed them all except for some of the third (especially disliked the epilogue).

I was really upset that they didn't bring up the fact that Gayle was the one who was the master trap maker. That seems like such a big foreshadow for the series. To leave it out entirely just doesn't seem right.
