Shadows

Ashes Trilogy, Book 2

De: Ilsa J. Bick

Narrado por: Katherine Kellgren

The Apocalypse does not end. The Changed will grow in numbers. The Spared may not survive.

Even before the EMPs brought down the world, Alex was on the run from the demons of her past and the monster living in her head. After the world was gone, she believed Rule could be a sanctuary for her and those she’d come to love.

But she was wrong.

Now Alex is in the fight of her life against the adults, who would use her, the survivors, who don’t trust her, and the Changed, who would eat her alive. Welcome to Shadows, the second book in the haunting, apocalyptic Ashes Trilogy: Where no one is safe and humans may be the worst of the monsters.

Unfortunately this book was unbelievable for me.

Would you try another book from Ilsa J. Bick and/or Katherine Kellgren?

Maybe.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Not sure yet.

Which character – as performed by Katherine Kellgren – was your favorite?

Tom

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Unsure.

Any additional comments?

The narrator was excellent! Highly recommend her reading books. But the story was just lacking and unbelievable. I love fiction, technology, etc... I love scifi, fantasy, you name it. But you have to mold a realistic story around those elements to lure me in. And I felt like the supporting characters were just too over the top. It seemed like 9/10th's of the elderly in this book suddenly became sadistic, diabolic & evil. Just didn't feel real to me.

Great story!

Just like book one, leaves you wanting more. Just when you think they'll never make out alive they do but never unscratched.

Good but not as great.

This was a good continuation of Ashes, but not as great. The author tells the story from too many perspectives. At least 6 different people. It makes it very difficult to follow along with what’s going on with each person last time you left off with them.

I really got into this one.

I was really worried upon reading the reviews for this book. People were complaining that it was confusing and difficult to read. But I didn't find that so.
Katherine didn't excellent job of reading.
The story is meant to be fast paced. It's a zombie scary type book.
It's not a love story at least not in classical sense. The authors conveying essence of danger and confusion.
I recommend this book to the apocalypse readers and horror fans. I see the storyline going somewhere and I'm going to follow.

amazing follow up

can wait for the next book, once agian a great book and amazing narration, much more violent and gory than the first book, can't wait for the next book, i would really like to know if anyone survives!
