The Conglomerate's most dangerous convicts have made the prison ship Perdition their home. And they will defend it…
Perdition is under siege. Mercenaries have boarded the station with orders to take control of the facility—and execute the prisoners. Their commander is offering full pardons to the first five inmates willing to help the mercs complete their mission.
Dresdemona "Dred" Devos hasn't survived hard time just to surrender to the Conglomerate's armored thugs. Leading a ragtag army of inmates, Dred and her champion, Jael, wage a bloody guerilla war of chaos and carnage against impossible odds. But no matter how dire the outlook, the Dread Queen never backs down…
From Goodreads:
All hell is breaking loose in the edge-of-your-seat follow-up to Havoc and Perdition from New York Times bestselling author Ann Aguirre…
The prison ship Perdition has become a post-battle charnel house with only a handful of Dred's soldiers still standing and now being hunted by Silence's trained tongueless assassins. Forging an uneasy alliance with mercenary commander Vost—who is their only chance at escape—the Dread Queen will do whatever it takes to end her life sentence on Perdition and keep the survivors alive long enough to cobble together a transport capable of getting them off station.
If Dred and her crew can win the deadly game of cat and mouse, the payoff is not only life but freedom—a prize sweeter than their wildest dreams. Yet the sadistic Silence would rather destroy Perdition than let a single soul slip from her grasp…
My Review:
Yes, wow, I loved reading these books! They were so fantastic, I loved being in this world, and we learned so much, it was just a joy to read these books! Sure, it was dark and bloody, but it was just so thoroughly entertaining!
So yeah, the situation in Perdition deteriorates, of course, because a death squad is sent. There is so much death, and after all that happened in the first book, well, that's saying something! We do get another POV character, the leader of the group, and while I didn't root for him, it was interesting to see his thoughts, reacting to what was going on!
There were so many developments! Like, the moving of the bond between Jael and Dred from just physical to the whole spectrum for a romantic relationship. To a mystery from the start of Perdition as a prison ship. The secrets behind Silence and her cult...It was so fantastic!
I really enjoyed that ending, we got to ride it out, those details that I love for at the end, they found their happy ending, and I'm so pleased! A good chunk of Breakout was after they, well, broke out, and I loved watching them find their footing as free citizens.
I absolutely loved reading this books, and I'm going to have to read the prequel series soon, because this world is so freaking fantastic!
