Slipping Away

Amy Bloom and her pack of Bloodhounds have found a purpose -- saving the "Normals." But after the Necropocalypse, the "normies" shoot first and ask questions later. Worse yet, what hunts humans in this new world goes beyond anything Amy has ever seen -- or fought before.

Bloom Town by Christopher Robin Negelein finally moves the storyline forward from Amy's personal coming of age in Growing Bloom to the group's story, but still told from her POV. However, with each installment, the Bloom series seems to be less about the survivors and more about how many different mutations the author can cram into one apocalypse. This is one of those rare times I wish there was less action and more character development.

As always,
