4.0

This was actually a nice step up from volume 1.

In this volume we get a little history on why crazy on the team is...well crazy. We also get to learn about Slavers. They are what they sound like. They capture people and enslave them, mostly children, and use them to hurt or steal things. With NO out of commission this volume we get to let all the other characters shine, plus we get a bunch of kids who can slit people's throats. So there's that.

I think what worked well this volume is it slowed down the action at the start and gave us alot of world building. The world inside Spread is far more interesting than the spread disease. I also really enjoyed the interaction with our main characters and the new kids. The violence is still brutal and plenty of deaths to go around. I am interested to see where this goes and if the story can stay this good throughout the rest of the series.

A 4 out of 5.
