A review by protoman21
The Compound by S.A. Bodeen

4.0

This book started so positively for me, but sort of fizzled out towards the end. I liked the set-up to the compound and finding out how Eli and his family lived down there, but at some point during the reveal of the reason for them being there and the escape it all just seemed to take too long. I prefer a book that keeps you guessing until the very end, but due to the nature of this story, the reveal had to come too early on, and then the rest was all a little anticlimactic. Still, I did enjoy the characters and the story enough to keep me interested in sticking around for the second book.
