Review Detail

-THE RUN-DOWN-
This book takes place months after the events in Ashfall.
Alex and Darla are perfectly fine at Uncle Paul's farm.
Sure, it's not like it was back before the supervolcano but they're surviving.
At least the were doing fine...
until a few bandits came along and tried to kidnap Alex's cousins.
And one of the bandits just so happened to have a gun with blue flowers on it.
The same gun that Uncle Paul gave to Alex's dad...
Worried about his parents, Alex (and Darla) go off to find them. Again.
But ,of course, it won't be easy.

-WHAT I THOUGHT-
I LOVED Ashfall!
And this book was just as great!
Alex and Darla do not just go find his parents and come right back to the farm, right? THAT WOULD BE BORING!!
And so what we have here was all this twists and turns occurring, all these surprises, AND IT ALL MADE SENSE!!
In this book there were often parts where all these bad things happened back to back.
Usually in a book, this would annoy me.
But like I said before, IT ALL MADE SENSE!!
If the Apocalypse occurred everything wouldn't be all happy and dandy, right? (if you said yes to that you really need to rethink things)
So all these bad things happening made the book completely realistic!
And this book is realistic, all of these things could actually happen!
IN CONCLUSION: This was an amazing book and i'm really looking forward to the next book! XD
