Chronicle Supposing Books Blackout (Newsflesh #3)
Rise up while you can. -Georgia Mason The year was 2014. The year we cured cancer. The year we cured the common cold. And the year the dead started to walk. The year of the Rising. The year was 2039. The world didn't end when the zombies came, it just got worse. Georgia and Shaun Mason set out on the biggest story of their generation. They uncovered the biggest conspiracy since the Rising and realized that to tell the truth, sacrifices have to be made. Now, the year is 2041, and the investigation that began with the election of President Ryman is much bigger than anyone had assumed. With too much left to do and not much time left to do it in, the surviving staff of After the End Times must face mad scientists, zombie bears, rogue government agencies-and if there's one thing they know is true in post-zombie America, it's this: Things can always get worse. Blackout is the conclusion to the epic trilogy that began in the Hugo-nominated Feed and the sequel, Deadline.Rating About Books Blackout (Newsflesh #3)

oh MY ...............it really is a good thing she's writing more books, this world is too good to let go to waste.I didn't love it "quite" as much as the others but the series as a whole is the mother of amazeballs! I think I found this one a bit long--not boring; NEVER boring--just longer, maybe slower? Or maybe I was just impatient for POV A to meet POV B already! >.< It could be because it was on audio this time, too. Anyways, epic series! My favorite remains book 2! (Yes, it's important for you to know! :P) Now I will go cry in a corner because it's over :(
Originally reviewed on The Book Smugglers**WARNING: THIS REVIEW CONTAINS UNAVOIDABLE SPOILERS FOR FEED AND DEADLINE. If you have not read the first two books in the trilogy and want to remain unspoiled, look away! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.**At the conclusion of Deadline, there have been some rather drastic revelations: Shaun is immune to Kellis-Amberlee, Georgia has been cloned by the CDC (oh, yeah, and the adopted brother and sister have had a longstanding sexual relationship). Blackout opens with
I do love the Newsflesh books. The backdrop is a really fascinating pandemic scenario, set after the world has had chance to get over the initial apocalyptic outbreak and make the first attempts to re-establish itself. Life goes on, but so do the zombies. People live alongside the zombies, but they do it in a constant state of fear and paranoia. There's a strong focus on the role of new media and tech which, like the virus backstory itself, is based on solid, credible science. Grant (aka Seanan
5 StarsThis is an incredible zombie series that is geared for both the young adult and the adult crowd. I loved how relevant it is to todays in your face media and in your face Facebook culture. Mira Grant has taken the uber popular post-apocalyptic genre and laid it down in a way that would be relevant in todays headlines. The characters and the format of the writing is what make the Newslflesh trilogy stand out among the best of this genre.I am not going to give any spoilers away, nor am I
Heres a book called Blackout that seems hugely popular with critics and the Goodreads crowd, but that I thought had serious flaws despite a cool premise. Now Ive written a long review going in depth into what irritated me so much. Hmm I wonder why Ive got this odd feeling of deja vu?This is the third book in the Newsflesh trilogy after Feed and Deadline in which Mira Grant* created a future world set about twenty-five years after mutated viruses created zombies. In this future, where dying by
