A review by ashesmann
False Future by Dan Krokos
4.0
I was a bit heistant to start this one. Once a series begins to founder it very rarely corrects itself in my opinion. At the end of the previous book everything seemed pure chaos. Relationships I loved were complicated, oh yeah and the main character was dead. Some of the other reviews gave me little hope. I do hate to abandon a series however and I'm glad that's the case. In this instance anyway.
Obviously Miranda is back. I don't understand other reviewers that complain about it. I thought it was done plausibly and interestingly. I thought the full explanation of what's happening acceptable.
Mostly I love Peter and Miranda. I was surprised how well a male author could write a girl that was kick butt but not abusive, vulnerable but not weak. And Peter trusts her completely. He doesn't try to 'assert' himself or dominate the situation. The world could be ending, probably good to be with someone who realizes he might not be the most important thing in the universe right this second.
The ending was bittersweet, but entirely acceptable. I thought it was interesting that 'our' Miranda seems to be the only one with a Peter. The others are all with Noah.
