Sequel to: Dread Nation.
The sequel to the New York Times bestselling epic Dread Nation is an unforgettable journey of revenge and salvation across a divided America. After the fall of Summerland, Jane McKeene hoped her life would get simpler: Get out of town, stay alive, and head west to California to find her mother. But nothing is easy when you're a girl trained in putting down the restless dead, and a devastating loss on the road to a protected village called Nicodemus has Jane questioning everything she thought she knew about surviving in 1880s America. What's more, this safe haven is not what it appears--as Jane discovers when she sees familiar faces from Summerland amid this new society. Caught between mysteries and lies, the undead, and her own inner demons, Jane soon finds herself on a dark path of blood and violence that threatens to consume her. But she won't be in it alone. Katherine Deveraux never expected to be allied with Jane McKeene. But after the hell she has endured, she knows friends are hard to come by--and that Jane needs her too, whether Jane wants to admit it or not. Watching Jane's back, however, is more than she bargained for, and when they both reach a breaking point, it's up to Katherine to keep hope alive--even as she begins to fear that there is no happily-ever-after for girls like her.

The first one was better... submitted by ldibble on June 22, 2022, 1:30pm This sequel wasn't "bad" just felt flat with little character development after the experience of the first book of the series. I have mixed feelings about the move to alienate Jane from readers with the vengeance plot as we were already primed to understand the need to stop Gideon. This ambivalence makes the redemption arc and Kate's efforts so much less powerful then if we had been able to redeem a real "bad guy." There was also space to take up some of the secondary characters that were missed: Sue, Ida, Lucy although I recognize that we might get more of them in another book. The biggest complaint I have is the use of a "ghost" character it felt like a half measure not a literary device where both the death and the inoculation plot were left at loose ends.
