A fun continuation to Awakening. The main cast of characters continue their fight for survival; upgrading Camp Holly, searching for survivors, and trying to understand why the world turned on itself. Although Fish is a major player in this sequel, Christian is definitely center-stage. The sense of familiarity, as characters are developed further, plays an important role in the overall feel of this read. There is a 'great reveal' in this adventure - and I'm not talking about Christian's immunity. It was alarmingly obvious the moment a scene transpired. The same is true for a tech-related item. I'll say no more. Obvious or not, it was still fun getting to the climax. There are additions and subtractions to the group of survivors. Fish is still Fish and Christian is still plagued (sorry) by his secret. The origin of the virus is realized, but I felt it still a minor bit of information in this character-driven zombie adventure. In all, this was fun and fairly quick to read. I felt the pace was solid. I noted just a few editing errors (not the kind spell-check catches). The book doesn't end in a cliff-hanger, but it definitely sets the stage for Volume 3 (TBD).
4.8 of 5 Stars - ARC provided.
From the Publisher:
In the months following the Awakening, Christian’s group of survivors grows but they are still outnumbered by the hordes of zombies and scabs plaguing the world. With their security at risk, they must move to safer ground. When Christian and Boomer get separated from the group, Christian is caught in a life or death struggle forcing him to reveal his immunity and hope he can trust the one person who knows his secret. After Fish leads a daring rescue to save a group of specialists, they discover the origin of the virus and a plan is forged to get them to the Hoover Dam. New hope is on the horizon until a betrayal within the camp threatens not only Christian’s life but the lives of all humanity. In Vol.2 of The Hunt Chronicles Christian makes a Revelation: He may be immune to the virus, but he is not immune to the monsters which dwell in all of us.
