Rebirth


"Rebirth is a continuation of the popular post-apocalyptic tale that one Facebook reviewer called a stark and uncompromising vision of the future of our world.

Narrated by Joel’s girlfriend Sara, it is a story of survival, betrayal, and hope. After giving birth to their son, whose evident purpose is to fulfill the destiny that Joel had forsaken, Sara realizes that her home is no longer a haven."

Rebirth was a interesting book to say the least. It attempts to blend religions for the purpose of the book and at first it doesn't seem to do it. As time goes on though it begins to feel a lot more fluid. I quite enjoyed the book as it builds upon the previous book and makes it so you want to read the next. If you thought the first was a little boring it's likely you may find the second a little as well, but the main story is still building up so that I think is ok. I'm sorry I didn't get this post out 2 months ago like I thought I would, but I just have kept putting it off as I tend to do. Hopefully I won't do that with the third book, till then be sure to read my other post's.

The Judas Syndrome

This is my first ever review on the blog so I don't yet know how I'm am gonna do everything. But what I can tell you is that I won't be rating things, I'll try to give honest reviews of how I view whatever the thing is I'm reviewing. I will try to pick apart whatever it is that I am reviewing to get out the bad and the good. That being said I hope this helps people decide whether or not

So a little while ago I was contacted by Michael Poeltl to do a review of his The Judas Syndrome Trilogy. This is the first review of the first book for which the trilogy is called, The Judas Syndrome.
 The book center's around 14 collage age men and women that survive a nuclear apocalypse and are just trying to survive, while high and drunk of course. Along the way they are constantly attacked, have to deal with death of members both caused by enemies without and within. The book use's religion as a central theme for whats underlying everything, but doesn't do it in a way that goes down hard(this is what I am getting at least so far, it could be the I am wrong I'll need to read the other books to find out). If your really against religion you may or may not like the book, but I myself was able to read it without cringing(I'm a deist so ya)so I think most people will be able to as well. While I don't want to give any of the book away I will say that I found the book to be worth the read if your looking to add to your Post Apocalyptic or "PA" genre of books.


If your interested in the book here is the website for the series and I encourage you to take a look. Rebirth the second book in the series can be found here. I will be doing a review on it later on as well as the third book.
