Sometimes you wait too long between books and you forget what the heck is going on. That didn’t happen here. Either Weber wrote the first Defiance book so well that I instantly remembered it or something else was going on. As soon as I got a couple paragraphs in, I knew exactly what was going on from the old book and what to expect in this book.
A House Divided was definitely a fast-paced book. No time was spent explaining who anyone was (the first book covered that) and most of the time the group spent fighting or preparing to fight. It was the perfect book to start off my 2017 review schedule.
Weber knows what he is doing in writing this story, I can tell that it’s well researched and that he enjoys the outcomes. Just like the first Defiance book, House Divided ends on a cliffhanger. Honestly, I think this entire book was built up towards that cliffhanger ending and now I can’t wait to see what happens in the next one.
To William, if you read this. Please keep using Kevin Pierce. He’s easily my favorite narrator (especially for Post-Apocalyptic fiction). He is the perfect voice for this story.
Overall, House Divided had a lot of twists and turns and it checked all the right checkboxes for me. I really enjoyed it.
I received this book as a gift, this has not affected my review of it in any way.
