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.

Still reading the series, I'll write a review when I'm done :-)

I’ve been reading this series since May and while I’m committed to finishing the rest of this series, it’s not spectacular. It is a page-turner (or earworm, I’m listening to it so I’m not sure the exact term). When I read it, I was invested in what happened to the characters. That said, I have yet to finish one of these and be desperate to pick-up the next book. It’s good if you’re into YA dystopian books, but it’s pretty run of the mill.
