Hazel (2934 KP) rated Savage (Ravaged World Trilogy #3) in Books

Oct 6, 2019 (Updated Oct 6, 2019)

This is the third book in the trilogy with Sea Sick and Ravage being the first two; although a trilogy, you don't need to read them all as they work equally well as standalone stories.

Savage is more than your typical zombie apocalypse story, it doesn't focus on the zombies and the usual eating-fest that accompanies such stories, it is more about the survivors and their quest to remain human both literally and figuratively.

I have to say that I enjoyed this trilogy and found Savage neatly finishes the series with satisfaction although not without some losses on the way! There aren't many books that make my eyes leak and I certainly didn't expect a horror/zombie book to do this but Savage did! I think it's because the author creates characters so well you get attached to them and when one of them is killed, it affects you ... well it did me anyway when one particular character met their end.

Well written, excellent characters, perfect setting, great pace and plenty of tension makes this a great read.

Hazel (2934 KP) rated All Fall Down (Helen Grace #9) in Books

Jun 7, 2020

This is another great addition to this series of books starring DI Helen Grace and another that keeps you on your toes, guessing to the end and reading way into the night. Although this is the ninth in the series, it does work well as a standalone however, you do lose a bit of the history of the characters which helps to flesh them out and explain their motivations but not enough to detract from what is a great book.

The premise of the story is like nothing I have read before ... the killer lets the victim know they are going to die within the hour! What would you think? What would you do?

From the very beginning, the action starts and the pace doesn't let up throughout culminating in a heart-stopping, breath-holding finale.

There are twists, turns, trials and tribulations aplenty which made for an exciting read and I most definitely look forward to number 10.

Many thanks to Orion Publishing Group via NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest and unbiased review.
