The audible for the first book was amazing so I was pleased to hear the sass again!

A must read for those into suspenseful, post-apocalyptic/zombie thrillers with strong black heroines surviving in 1880s America.

Although I didn't find this book to be quite as engaging and captivating at Dread Nation, I enjoyed reading it and am glad to have finally read this series. I frequently was annoyed at the many words and phrases that were repeated countless times, likely due to trying to stick with the language of the time period, but I found the repetition a little distracting while reading. I do find that I preferred Jane's perspective, but I am glad that we were able to read from Katherine's pint of view and to keep up with her journey. The ending left a few unanswered questions that I wish had been addresses, but overall I though that it made sense and was a logical ending. There was such a variety of representation in this book, done in ways that didn't seem like representation for the sake of representation. It fi really well into the story and was so immersed with the world that it seemed more like ana Easter egg thing to notice than anything else. I especially enjoyed seeing a character (Katherine) with some anxiety and how that affected her.
