Rage Within
by Jeyn Roberts
Aries, Clementine, Michael, and Mason and their group have survived the first wave of the apocalypse that turns fellow humans into violent "baggers" that strive to take over the world and annihilate the population.
The group is now trying to decide their next move, and determine how to stay safe. Aries, the leader, struggles with her own confidence and her responsibility to make the best decisions for the group, all the while, torn between two boys she cares about. Clementine is desperate to find her brother, and Michael, who realizes his feelings for Clementine joins her search. Mason struggles with the truth--he may be a danger to everyone he cares about.
Told from alternating points of view, this story continues the apocalyptic saga that began with Dark Inside.
This is another series where you REALLY need to read one right after one another. I was confused quite a bit during this book, because I'd read the first one years ago. However, Roberts does a pretty good job catching the reader up on what happened in the first book and the dark memories of all her characters.
The love triangle is a little frustrating, especially when the goal in life right now is just to survive, but I suppose in any situation, love will find a way, so I can hardly judge Roberts for adding that side bit to her story.
This book is very graphic, so when reading this, keep that in mind--it's a violent world, and to survive, sometimes you have to be violent to. The book is also frustrating, because guess what...another cliff-hanger! Roberts better get on that third book!
