Not as good as the first book.The plot is compelling and faces an issue that we could be facing not too far from now. I can imagine this happening and can understand what things would be like if we were to face World War III and Earth was no longer survivable. The connections that the author has built between the characters never fail to surprise me and add to the twist of the story.In terms of writing and craft though, I think this book lacks that "special touch" that some other books have. I just feel that the author could have put more detail into the changes in the relationships of the characters.Overall, pretty good, even though the first book was better.
I'm a big fan of the show The 100, so I wanted to see how the books compared. I'm enjoying the books even though there are substantial differences between it and the show. The same is true about The Vampire Diaries, but I understand that books and film are two different animals and often need different approaches to be successful. And I'm fascinated to see what those changes are and how they're incorporated into the TV show.
Can't wait for the next book.
