Krisis by Deirdre Gould
5.0

This one was a nice change of scenery taking us far from the City and the Cure, in a post-apocalyptic society that has almost reverted to medieval times.

I actually found it better than the second novel though there were many times I wanted to just give up and stop reading. Not because of the story but the priest... that [censured] priest!

I have never felt such a profound, even visceral hatred towards a fictional character. I despised him completely. He represented everything I see as rotten in a society, the zealousness, the fanatical obsessive belief that he hold the Truth. It has absolutely nothing to do with religion despite what is portrayed in the story but that type of person that I reject with my very fiber.

Once more, we see how depraved and inhuman people can become while wrapping themselves with the belief that hat they are doing is morally correct. smh

A good story (despite that &^%$ priest)and a ending that hints at what is to come.
