Because of this I went into the second book, Deception, more prepared and open to accepting the story. I also had a misconception of the plot which distracted me from the story. Although I was familiar with the characters and the environment, there was something missing.
The Courier’s Daughter series started off with a rocky start for me, not completely winning me over just yet. Book three of course is the jewel to the crown, taking off where the 2nd book has lifted us up, creating a thrilling and shocking climax and wrapping things up to satisfy the readers as best as the author can. It includes hardships and adventure, but usually tends to be pretty low key before gearing us up for the finale. Book two is essentially always a stepping stone in the series. Trilogies follow a basic pattern: Book one introduces us to the concept and the characters making us comfortable in our surroundings. In this daring sequel to Defiance, with the world they once loved forever destroyed, Rachel and Logan must decide between a life on the run and standing their ground to fight.1
Even worse, as it becomes clear that the Commander will stop at nothing to destroy them, the band of survivors begins to question whether the price of freedom may be too great-and whether, hunted by their enemies and the murderous traitor in their midst, they can make it out of the Wasteland alive. The chaos and uncertainty of each day puts unbearable strain on Rachel and Logan, and it isn’t long before they feel their love splintering. Under constant threat from rival Carrington’s army, who is after the device that controls the Cursed One, the group decides to abandon the ruins of their home and take their chances in the Wasteland.īut soon their problems intensify tenfold: someone-possibly inside their ranks-is sabotaging the survivors, picking them off one by one. With their ragged group of survivors struggling to forge a future, it’s up to Logan to become the leader they need-with Rachel by his side. And Rachel, grief stricken over her father’s death, needs Logan more than ever.
The brutal Commander’s whereabouts are unknown.
