cosymilko's review against another edition

We find out what happened to Corrie in this book. Logically, it's the only thing that could have happened to her but that still doesn't prepare you for it.
It's at this point in the book that Marsden really slips back into his normal flow. It's at this point that the reading becomes easier. I wanted to know what was happening at this point. I wasn't reading just to progress the series. It made a huge difference. The amount of pages that took me months to read took merely an hour or two after this point.
I love the way the characters have grown. We see and feel the effects of the war on them. It's so much more fleshed out. I love this series. I missed the big bang but the end of this book suited me fine.
I can't wait to start the next one!

After a brief reprieve, the teens return to Australia and to Hell, both in the literal and figurative sense.
Out of the series so far, this is my least favourite. Nothing against how it is written, still wonderfully written with the great detail to Australian life but the plot doesn’t move much and a lot of time is spent dwelling on past experiences. Which is fair because the teens have been through an ordeal already but I like more action.
For those of you who read this series for the kicking butt parts, I’d skip this one and head straight for the next in the series.
