We see things from alex's perspective. We find out what he goes through after we leave him at the end of delirium and how he goes through each day living on hope that lena is still alive.

I don't really know what to say about something so short, except that I thought putting it at the end of Requiem, literally on the next page after the series has supposedly ended, felt weird. Basically, it's just a quick little story explaining what Alex was up to during the events of Pandemonium and how he managed to find his way back to the Wilds after his failed escape at the end of Delirium. It was refreshing that in this he wasn't the giant douchebag he was in Requiem.

POSIBLE SPOILER DE EL LIBRO ANTERIOR, PANDEMONIUM.
Le voy a poner una estrella porque goodreads no reconoce como valorado si le pones cero estrellas pero es un libro bastante innecesario. Solo sirve para decirnos que Alex escapo sin más. Y bueno eso ya era obvio si ha aparecido en la historia anterior.
Encima una una forma de narrar bastante poética que me saco un poco de quicio y encima hacía un poco complicada la lectura, bueno más que la lectura que entendiéramos que quería decirnos.
Encima demasiado amor veo entre sus lineas, y ya sabéis que eso a mi me cansa.
¿Volvería a leerla? No, gracias.
¿La recomiendo? Ni siquiera a las personas que están leyendo la trilogía.
¿Ya no tengo más que decir? pues no, es que tampoco da para mucho.
Parece que he tardado mucho en leerla pero no, es simplemente que la he tenido abandonada. Me la he leído en dos días y porque el primer día leí muy pocas páginas.

Great little mini-story.

Nice to see what happened to Alex in between.

This could get very, VERY interesting.

Otro libro que amé totalmente aunque me hubiera gustado más que hablaran sobre la parte en que Alex vuelve a ver a Lena después de todo ese tiempo en que ninguno sabía que había pasado con el otro, pero sin duda el libro estuvo excelente como todos los demás de Lauren :)
