I’ve been wanting to read the sequel to Eve of Man for a while and I was excited to finally pick up the second one.
It starts pretty much where the last one left it and then it got dark. Darker than I expected, which definitely changed how I viewed the story.
It was a surprise.
Adding a third viewpoint meant the writing was a lot more all over the place than the first one. I found it really easy to follow Eve and Bram’s story and although I liked the added element of the EPO with Michael’s perspective, in some places it felt a bit too much.
Eve has developed as a character and I’m really interested in seeing where the story goes- especially with that ending (which I saw coming!) and when the third book comes out I want to read it to conclude the story.
Obviously I can’t say too much without giving away the first book but this book definitely felt more post-apocalyptic than the first with the world being unlivable, and I liked the descriptions and the world building. Tom and Giovanna can write really good books!
I did enjoy it, I just wish there hadn’t been so much thrown in as it was hard to follow sometimes a bit of a mish mash. Other than that, a good book and a good sequel to the first!
4/5 stars.
