While I’ll admit that this wasn’t quite as engaging as the original series, I did really love Ash and her team. Definitely worth the read if you’re a fan of the series.

I loved this book but I must admit I much preferred the original characters and it felt like following the last interesting second intrigue. Maybe I should have waited a bit after reading the News flesh theory. Overall a great book though!

This was a surprise book. I didn't realize another had been written in the series and it's from the point of view of a whole different set of people, mirroring the first book but with the other party's campaign coverage. It's so good!! I absolutely loved it and the main characters were just perfection!

I liked the characters, although I didn't fall in love with them the way I did with the trilogy characters. If I'm being honest, I'm not sure that this particular addition to the series really added anything, except a good story that Grant wanted to get out. There were some GREAT scenes, and who doesn't love reading about zombie sheep? I understood the rationale behind adding in the chapters in the Maze, but they really ruined the flow of the story, and other than meeting some characters we knew from Newsflesh, they didn't add much to the overall world.
I enjoyed reading this, and now I'm sad that I've consumed everything in the Newsflesh world... so it's probably time for a reread!
