"I'll tell you a weird thing about apocalypses - a thing I didn't even know until I was in one: they seem pretty bad, don't they? Well, take it from me: they can always get worse."
Three months after the killer rain first fell, Ruby is beginning to realise her father might be dead . . . and that she cannot survive alone. When a chance encounter lands her back in the army camp, Ruby thinks she is safe - at a price. Being forced to live with Darius Spratt is bad enough, but if Ruby wants to stay she must keep her eyes - and her mouth - shut. It's not going to happen. When she realizes what is going on - the army is trying to find a cure by experimenting on human subjects - Ruby flips out . . . and makes an even more shocking discovery: she's not useless at all. The Storm begins . . .
My Review:
Man, this was such a fantastic read! I loved reading the first book, and I was really excited to be back in this world! And boy, it was such a great read! Things were still pretty bad at the end of the first book, and I had to know what was going to happen next!
I just love the way that this book is told! Ruby's writing in a journal, and she's writing to whomever picks it up, and that's us. So there's moments where she's talking straight at us, and it was such a great choice for this series!
Oh, and Darius! I loved her interactions with him, they had a particular relationship, and I loved watching it develop! He was a really great character to read about, espcailly his interactions with Ruby, and the love that they grew to share!
The science stuff in this book was pretty interesting as well. I have no idea how it'd work, but it seemed logical from my view point. And of course things went down a certain way, and the ending was really entertaining. I would love to have a bit more, to see how the world is doing after everything that happened!
This was a fantastic read, and I can't wait to read more by Virginia Bergin!
