I couldn’t put this down!
I have been waiting for this book ever since the last book finished looking forward eagerly to read what would happen next to Jacob and his friends. A few weeks ago I was so excited to hear that a friend of mine got a copy of a proof to read for his work. I then hounded him to lend me it and I’ve been reading it throughout the past few days enjoying each moment of it (he’s not even gotten a chance to read it for himself but let it be his loss as I couldn’t wait much longer).
The story takes off where the third book ended with Jacobs family shocked by the peculiar children and the adult stranger on their property along side Jacob who was meant to be going to a mental facility.
Jacob and the team are thrown into many new experiences in this new series, with new loops, new friends and even new dangerous problems faced!
One of my favourite things about this book is getting more insight into the history and lore of peculiardom, we learn why there are so few ymbrenes in America and we even get a glimpse of something much bigger over the horizon that has been known by so few for such a long time. This big thing will guarantee us more books which I can not wait for!
In summary I loved this book, Ransom holds me hostage to this book (sorry couldn’t resist) in wanting to always know more and in this one he delivers but teases so much more in the coming series. The characters are slowly growing from the children they once were and it shows in the pages in how they interact with each other, its not all smooth sailing from here and I look forward to sharing that journey with them.
