It makes me think something other than morality is at the root of what they’re up to.Īs always, Kristen Simmons characters are authentic, well-developed, and deep. On the one hand, they’re trying to morally cleanse the country, but at the same time, they’re providing paid escorts to the soldiers. I don’t fully understand what the FBR is all about. I also found some of the plot points unclear. It’s setting us for book three, but it didn’t leave me on the edge, counting down until the last book the way Catching Fire or Insurgent did. I also wasn’t wild about the ending, but only because it didn’t feel riveting enough. Overall, it felt darker than Article 5 and that’s saying something but I haven’t decided yet if that’s a good thing. It moved at a good pace, had strong conflict and more than a few surprises. It ‘s fast-paced, gripping, has plenty of angsty drama, and some really sweet and tender moments between Ember and Chase.

Near-celebrities now for the increasingly sensationalized tales of their struggles with the government, Ember and Chase are recognized and taken in by the Resistance-an underground organization working to systematically take down the government. At headquarters, all eyes are on the sniper, an anonymous assassin taking out FBR soldiers one by one.
