they just argue so much over stupid things and it always drove me a bit crazy. I know relationships aren't perfect and that couples argue in real life and all that, but. In terms of their relationship, I felt it kind of just happened with little development in the first book and continued to frustrate me throughout the series. While neither of them is an awful character, I just never found anything super likeable or engaging about either of them. yeah, I am not a huge fan of Benny and Nix––not as a couple, and not as individual characters. If you've read my reviews of the other books in the series, I'll probably sound like a broken record now, but. Lilah is just super awesome, and her dedication to Chong is so touching it was heartbreaking to see her suffer so much over thinking Chong might die. In this book it was especially painful to see what Chong was going through, especially since he's such a sweetheart and is usually the comic relief and everything. I've always especially liked Lilah and Chong, and their relationship is probably the most compelling thing about the series for me. While there are exciting parts in books three and four, I think the story wandered a bit too much in both.īut I did still really like some of the characters in this one. that could have been cut out and it could have been focused on a more concrete plot. I think there were a lot of redundant scenes, some unnecessary point of view shifts, etc. However, in general I felt like the third and fourth books were kind of repetitive of each other, and might have just been condensed into one book. On top of that, the third book had quite a cliffhanger ending, what with Chong starting to turn into a zombie and all.Īfter finishing this one, I'm mostly happy with the way the series ended. I found the third book a bit disappointing, but I was still really looking forward to the fourth book since I knew it would be the final installment of the series. However, I felt the first two books were much more powerful than the third and fourth. I did like it over all, and altogether this is a good series.

So, it took me a little over two months to get through the entirety of Fire and Ash. WARNING: This will contain major spoilers for books 1-3!

You don't have a right to shut us out of the process of saving it." "I'm doing this because this is our world too. "You're doing all of this because of your friend? Because of that Chong kid?" Finally he looked down at the torn piece of paper in his hand. Then he turned and looked at the zoms, who were less than a quarter mile away. The ranger looked past him at the three fierce girls on the other side of the trench. Benny waited, his whole body tensing for the argument, the outrage, the refusal that he knew was coming.
