Review:
This book started just a few hours after the last one left off, and oh, I tell you that I hated or very much disliked the ending of the last book. It made me really mad. It almost made me mad enough to through the book across the room. I like how the author can unravel a few secrets and make you think that he just gave all of them away, but nope just a page later there is yet something else that he brings up (he makes you need to know everything and then some). The pace in this book was much faster than the last. I will have to say that I was suprised what the Mayor (or as he would like to call himself President) made Davy (Mayor's son if you don't know already lol) and Todd do. I kind of liked to hear Viola's point of view in this book, it added a whole new spectrum of thoughts and ideas). In the book before I really didn't care much for Davy, but in this book I kind of grown to like him. (if you read the triology please tell me i you liked Davy as much as I do and I want to find out about him *I am really dieing to be a spoiler person) I guess that is my review loved this book as much as the first. The only reason I gave it 4 was because I remember not liking something(I can't remeber due to the fact it is late and I am about 200 pages in on "The Monsters of Men".
