The militiamen are training them every day — hard. As a result, the Free Army has dozens of new citizen soldiers, both young and old. And Sophia and I are among the newest recruits. Chris, because of his natural leadership abilities, has grown to become the leader of our militia.
People look up to him. Below Chris there are other men who instruct the newbies. The first one is Alexander Ramos. Tall, tanned, slightly creepy. Chris told me that he was an active-duty Recon Marine home on leave when the world went haywire. Aside from that, nobody knows anything about him. Outside of his Omega uniform, he looks like a different person.
No more Grease. His hair is cut short and the fine features of his face stand out against his brown eyes. An explosives specialist in the Army. I can't wait for the sequel to SOE. I rate this fantastic book five stars. It thrills you, it scares you, it keeps you reading like crazy because you just have to see what happens next, and, most important of all, it makes you feel.
And that is not an easy feat for a book. The pacing was great, and I never once got bored. There was always something happening to keep things interesting, whether it was meeting strange people, trying to survive, or action scenes. I loved it.
This book is just one cliff hanger after another…Cassidy is a strong willed and strong minded girl with sharp wit and a mouth full of sassy comebacks. I absolutely loved her.
The secondary MC, Chris - the incredibly hot navy seal who saves the sassy Cassidy's butt on several occasions is swoon worthy and written very well.
Some dystopian novels are so far removed from reality that it makes it difficult for the reader to connect with the story; not the case with State of Emergency. It's fast paced and enjoyable. If you like this genre, then you will love this book. Can't wait for the next installment as this book ends on a cliff hanger. At the end it said, "To be continued" and I hope that means there will be a sequel! I want to know what happens to Chris and Cassie, and to the country.
Just waiting in anticipation for the second one to come out! I remember when I had a life. I had a nice house, a car, and a stack of books in my closet that rivaled the leaning tower of Pisa.
Life is nothing like it used to be. Things used to be easy. Flip a switch? On goes the light. Press a button? Swipe a credit card? You just paid for lunch. Easy, simple, convenient. Nothing is like that anymore. People are dying, starving. A shadow army called Omega is rolling its forces across the country, imprisoning and killing everybody or anything that gets in its way. So what does that mean for the folks in California? Folks like me? We lost a friend of ours to Omega, too.
So what happens now? Do we give up? Do we live the rest of our lives sleeping in the dirt and eating grubs or plants for dinner? Chris wants to fight Omega — literally and figuratively speaking. But to do that, we have to find our folks first. My life has been a perpetual walk-a-thon since December of last year.
But I never get a break. Chris turns around. He shoves stray pieces of hair away from his face, looking more than a little annoyed with my complaining.
