I thought the first book in this series was an emotional rollercoaster, but Sarah Lyons Fleming has managed to write an even more jarring and touching story here as we catch up with our old friends at Kingdom Come Farm.  This story has it all, from tender moments to gut-wrenching terror, and all with the backdrop of the end of the world.  Cassie is once again our guide in the Lexer infested world and her point of view veers widely with her emotional state.  The author is a master at messing with the reader's head so we have pages of normalcy lulling us into complacency followed by bursts of sudden horror, heartbreak and fast paced, in-your-face action.  I cannot wait for Book Three.The characters introduced in the first book are back and we have an extended pool of survivor for Cassie and Co. to interact with, which is a good thing.  Heck, I even start liking Ana in this book now that the readers get to see the other side of her personality, and she makes a good partner in mayhem with Cassie.SPOILER ALERT:This story is filled with twists and turns from the beginning and my only complaint is the disaster at the end seems a little contrived (in that, if you know something bad is coming, you need to send out more patrols).  Yes, this adds to the terror but these folks aren't newbies in the apocalypse.
