Review: The end to the first sequel...
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 07 3, 2014
I have really enjoyed this series to date. It started with the book THE YELLOWSTONE CONUNDRUM and then the sequels SCORCHED EARTH Parts 1-4.The story is excellent with well thought out scenarios of "what if" there was actually a mega eruption at Yellowstone plus earthquakes and flooding on top of the eruption.The characters are well developed and, for the most part, are just regular people placed in extraordinary circumstances.As I've written in my reviews of the other parts of this story, author Randall definitely needs to get a professional editor. The multitude of spelling and grammar errors are distracting. SCORCHED EARTH 3 and 4 seem to have fewer errors so maybe something has changed at the author's end.Part 4 finishes up accounting of the first week after the eruption. The author plans on starting another sequel called THE LOSE-LOSE SCENARIO starting hopefully in September 2014, per his postscript at the end of Part 4. It will cover the first month after the eruption.This has been a great SHTF story so far. I will be looking forward to catching up with my favorite characters in the next sequel.
