I felt it was a fitting sequel. I didn't mind the jumping back to the past I found it intriguing. I almost wanted more original survivor stories than the current survivor stories!! I think it was necessary for the author to take us back, we needed the history. If I say more I may spoil the story. Bu...
3.5 Stars This read was slightly better than the first. Cronin has great characterization skills, just too many of them in one book which bog the steady pace of his writing down. A good solid read.

I then picked up the unabridged version at my local library and heard it on another long drive.I loved the sto...
***Warning: Spoiler alert! This review contains unmarked spoilers. Consider yourself duly warned!***It is with great sadness that I give this book one single star, and even that might be more than it deserves. The Twelve is the sequel to 2010's The Passage and is the second book in the trilogy. ...
