Sojourn: The Deadlands by B.D. Messick
5.0
First, I have to state that I read an unedited version of this book months and months ago, so it's not fresh in my mind.
I. Loved. This. Book!
I really enjoyed the first book, Sojourn: The Wildlands, but in book 2 things get REAL. While Rayn and Luk had obstacles in Wildlands, they're nothing compared to Deadlands. There are multiple brushes with death and hardships, but working together they fight to keep going.
I expected the ending to be similar to the first book in that they make it to the end of this stretch of their journey, but oh man, I was pleasantly surprised to find that wasn't the ending, and it was so much better!
This book is definitely grittier than The Wildlands in my opinion, the hardships a little more harsh.
I highly recommend this book to readers who enjoy adventure, dystopian, and post-apocolyptic with light romance.
