The last volume I needed to re-read. Kept the rating the same this time around, the quality of the books seems to be going slowly downhill which is disappointing. I remember this being my least liked of all the ones I'd read. It feels like a lot of lead up happens but no actual plot moves forward. This and the previous volume also start a long time after the end of the volume before them, this one being a whole year, and it's left unexplained. Progress was made in building the city at the school and whatever, but big changes happen at the end of the third volume that don't get addressed until later, and even then it's in bits and pieces. Not the best possible execution, more confusing than suspenseful.

I just didn’t enjoy this. There’s a time jump just not really explained and plot points that aren’t explained so I was just confused.

I only have one more of these free through Comixology, so I really really hope it doesn't leave me on a cliffhanger. That said, the forth volume was even better than the last! Action packed, surprising and the characters are just awesome.

Vol 2 leaves off when new London are coming to colonise the school and then this starts a year later. I’m fine with time jumps but I’d really rather have seen the immediate aftermath of Karen killing Adrian, of the peace talks or the battle between new London and the school. I just feel I missed an issue or something.
Overall I’m really enjoying this series. It’s EXACTLY the type of post apocalyptic I like where the emphasis is on rebuilding society and the threat is mostly from other survivors with the dangerous environment taking a backseat

One year later. After the climax of the last issue, we jump ahead and see how everybody fared in the year since. Somehow I had thought that the events in the last volume would lead up to a climax in this one here, but apparently I blinked and the climax has happened already... Anyway... I like how this story is developing and the artwork stepped up in quality as well.

Volume 4 of The Woods opens a year after the events of Volume 3. This volume spends a lot of time back-tracking to reveal events of the last year while setting up the events in the next volume. As such, it felt a little like starting from the beginning. Still a good series, but not the best volume so far.
