Review: Good Series - Chapter 2 Leaves You Really Hanging
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 04 30, 2012
To start off, this is not a full-length book but the second of a ten-part series of short stories: it will take you less than an hour to read this one and, of the ten stories, this is probably the weakest one as it is just too short and leaves you really hanging wanting more and is a little incomplete.  If you haven't read the first book of the series (Renewal without any of the numbers after it), you need to read that one first then progress in numerical order through #10.Similar to the other books in the series, the author sets you into a futuristic (and believable) outlook of America several decades after a nuclear destruction of organized society, with frequent flashbacks / narrations of what happened immediately after to the surviving families.  I could actually visualize the various scenes and situations, and found myself wondering "what if" or "what would I do" while reading not only this one, but the other stories in the series.  The author does a good job of wetting your tastebuds and wanting a little more at the conclusion of the story - hence, let's go purchase the next book  of the series.  Overall, the series is very good and I highly recommend it.I will point out I did read all ten of the stories of the series and, while good, it was a little annoying to having just strapped myself in to read for a while then finding the various stories ended and I had to go buy another.  Mr. Perkins, if you are reading this review I would encourage you to put all ten stories into one edition and raise the price - your readers will thank you for it (and spend less money) while you will make more off of the 70% royalty!
