Ashton Memorial by Robert R. Best

3.0

I REALLY liked the first of Best's Memorial trilogy, tight plotting, likeable characters and an end of the world premise added up to a really fun read. It's hard to say where the sequel goes wrong but it just didn't grip me in the same way. The zoo setting is clever and used well but the run, fight, run, fight narrative just never really catches fire. The climax is entertaining though and I will be reading the third volume.
