The Dead of Night by John Marsden
5.0
The war continues in this story with the group of teenagers doing their best to adapt, survive and fight back all while wondering if they will all make it through this nightmare.
This is my first time reading this book in the series and I was hooked. What I enjoyed in this first book continued throughout this book and kept me engaged.
This story has:
*like it's predecessor, great pacing. There is descriptions and 'less action' parts but this works well to heighten the drama felt in the other sections.
*it's not a fairytale. I tried to guess the plot twists but refreshingly I was guessing wrong. Nothing was predictable and safety was never ensured.
*the changing dynamics and maturity of the characters as they react to the 'new normal' was well done. The changing landscape, opinions and emotions seemed believable.
I recommend this book to anyone who has read or watched Tomorrow When the War Began. Just keep reading. It's worth it.
