They narrowly escaped the end of world, but the real problems for the three thousand souls aboard cruise ship Spirit of Arcadia have only just begun. Now their priority is to find enough food to sustain the whole community; possibly the last humans alive. Captain Jake Noah has a plan, but there’s barely time to put it into action before a new menace threatens the lives of a deadly virus. As the mutated contagion sweeps the ship, the race is on to create a cure before all succumb to a painful — and messy — demise. Book two in the thrilling Noah's Ark series.
British chap Harry Dayle lives with his domesticated animals and undomesticated wife and daughter in the middle of rural France. When he’s not writing in his secret woodland retreat, Harry spends his days battling entropy.
This book was better written than the first, and I found it much more entertaining. I will stick around for the 3rd book in the series.
I have a few issues, but my prim so eyes complaint is still the chronic overuse of the word, that. with rare e x reception, it should be dropped, which would make a far better sentence. even when it appears to be necessary, the word, that, could be replaced with something else, making the sentence flow better. This issue drives me nuts.
I suggest the author read through the book, eliminating the word, that, to see how much the read improves.
I didn't like this second in the Noah's Ark series as much as the first. I'm no expert, but some of the biology didn't seem correct to me. I think the reactions of a large portion of the ship's passengers and crew aren't very realistic. Still, the author held my interest enough to finish the book and want to try the third book of the series.
