Lamplighters Society follows Askari and her friends after they recover from the events that took place in City of Dod and adjust to Greystone city and the politics within that.

I have so much I want to say about this book, but I hardly know where to start. Things were just incredibly well done. I thought Askari's development and how she handled the trauma that came with Connie's death to be very reasonable and realistic even though no one seemed to blame her for it. I also found Greystone city and the people within it to be very interesting and the fact that it was hard to know who she could trust while simultaneously needing to gain trust from the city itself. I also liked that we finally got some answers to questions that have existed from the first book such as where the monsters come from, and what the lamplighters society is. Overall, it was just a really good read much like the previous book.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Monster Dystopian
This series is really great. It is so different than anything else I have read recently. The none stop action makes it an easy read. It is filled with monsters and warriors and different cultures trying to survive and rebuild after the event. The MC is struggling to find her place on the world and it is a joy to follow her journey and watch her grow. I will definitely read the next installment.

Picking up right where book 2 left off, Askari and her friends stumble into a refuge of sorts where she learns about yet another way people have been surviving in the post-apocalyptic world. Plagued by inner demons, hunted by monsters that just won't give up her trail, and impatient to complete her mission, Askari finds herself in a situation where something just seems off.

I have enjoyed watching this world and its characters grow and develop through the series. Mixed in with all the monster battles are larger, growing conflicts that are far more dangerous than any monster alone could be. Fast paced story that keeps you wanting more.
