The Breach was an excellent book, and Ghost Country was even better. Action throughout kept me on the edge of my seat, and it had great character development. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and can't wait to read the next in the series (hopefully it comes out soon). (

Thrillers aren't my usual thing, but the premise intrigued me. I do like the post-apocalyptic type stuff and this was some easy but engaging reading to while away the time while I wait around in hospital.

The mystery was good, kept my attention and I found myself reading late into the night over a couple of days. I haven't read the first novel in the series, but now would definitely consider it if I came across it.

The only botherations were common to a lot of books of this type - the apocalypse hit, but America's the only place that's important in that regard - the villains were content to ignore the rest of the world. I'm still not too sure what the importance of the driest locations were to the whole plot. I would have liked to learn more about future Arica and what happened there, but we only get the briefest of glimpses.

In spite of those niggles, a solid read. (

Three weeks ago I read the first of the Travis Chase novels (The Breach) and in my review, I said that I would not be continuing with the series. But I lied. I’ve now completed the second book, which is just as silly as the first. I nearly wrote that it had a lower body count compared to the thousands killed in the first book, but then I remembered that Ghost Country actually features the wiping out of the whole of humanity, so I may have been wrong about that. Picture a cross between the Jack Reacher novels and the Back to the Future movies and you have an idea what these books will be like. And I absolutely, positively promise not to read the third and final volume of the trilogy. (

Getting the main character 'back in the game' is a bit static, but it gets through that bit quick. Airport read. (

I finished the first book in this series and went straight on to book two. I was NOT disappointed! (
