I was given this ARC for an honest review.

I loved this second book, it was well written and expands on the first book and we get more of an idea of how the world ended.

The story takes place between the years 2078-79 and acts as a prequel.

Great characters again and lots of action and terrible destruction.

I loved the way it all tied into familiar territory at the end and I'm already looking forward to the next one in this series.

Earth is destroyed by Ignium, which was used to replace electricity.

Ignium though was toxic and a pollutant. All of the corporations were dependent on Ignium and they covered up any research that painted Ignium as the pollutant it was.

By the time the results became clear what Ignium was doing to the planet, it was too late to stop it.

With the planet destroyed, the survivors begin to fight for control of looting areas and overall control.
