There are so many books and stories about an apocalypse - with every book having its own idea on what the apocalypse will be - but not many books mention our four-legged or winged friends. When you think about this, it's strange, since I know so many people who consider their pets to be family membe...
The best book of the trilogy.Blays and Dante are split up for the majority of this, and chapters alternate between each one. This makes it tricky to get into, having to recall what each one was up to. They meet up for a few chapters later then split apart again going back to the same problem.At leas...
Great collection of conspiracy themed shorts. Grabbed through KU and I recommend!

I have to admit that this book seemed a little slow for me. But, being one who does not like to give up on a book, I trudged through and was quite happy in doing so. The beginning felt a bit too quick story-wise. Dante had heard of a special book all his life and went out to search for it. He eventu...
What I liked:the humor was done well- Robert, Cally etcBlays- his loyalty and his sense of humor made him my favorite characterreading about how religious factions can affect both history and the futureWhat I did not like:modern cuss words- as in many other books which have a "historic" feel to them...
Meltdown is the second book in Robertson's Breakers series. So ensure you read Breakers first, a funny, scary, thoughtful sci-fi take on the apocalypse, and answers the question, what would ordinary people do to survive, how would they change.
