The story gets even tighter and more depressing. "This is the last town on earth and we are surrounded by monsters." Well, what are the "abbies" and who is responsible for Alyssa's death? What is David up to and what does Hassler want? Is Ethan able to rescue this town and his family? Is the fete going as planned? When you have started part one of this trilogy, this second volume is an absolute must read. It has a very dark undertone, is very dystopian and you don't know if the story is set in t...

My first review of 2020 has left me a bit stumped.Wayward, the second book in Blake Crouch’s Wayward Pines trilogy follows on directly from book one. The problem in reviewing this instalment is that any mention of the book’s setting or plot will immediately be a major spoiler for book one. However, our hero Ethan Burke, FBI special agent and general good guy, is still stranded in the strange community of Wayward pines ...... white picket fences handsome Victorian buildings and polite but glazed ...

Love the atmosphere of a small town where things are strange but you don't know what!

Εξαιρετικό πλεονέκτημα το γεγονός πως είχα και τα τρία βιβλία της σειράς όταν ξεκίνησα να διαβάζω την "Πόλη". Σε άλλη περίπτωση δεν μπορώ να φανταστώ πως ειναι να περιμένεις τη συνέχεια από μια ιστορία που σε έχει κερδίσει ολοκληρωτικά και προσπαθείς να κατανοήσεις τις ανατροπές που εξελίσσονται από σελίδα σε σελίδα. Στο δεύτερο μέρος μπαίνεις ακόμα πιο βαθιά μέσα στην "Πόλη" που πραγματικά θα μπορούσε να χαρακτηριστεί με τους πιο οξυμωρους προσδιορισμούς. ΠΑΡΑΔΕΙΣΟΣ και ΚΟΛΑΣΗ - ΘΑΝΑΤΟΣ και ΑΝΑ...

”I know what they need. Perfection all the time would drive them mad. For every perfect little town, there’s something ugly underneath. No dream without the nightmare.” We all have secrets we carry around with us. As a species we aren’t really good at keeping secrets, even those rattling skeletons that could prove detrimental to our lives. In the end, most of us end up telling somebody. You can swear someone to secrecy, but the same itch, the same need to tell someone that compelled you to te...
