Incredibly well crafted and exciting continuation of the Convulsive series. ASH is possibly the best yet - it picks up exactly where Part 3 left off. Compelling and thrilling. It’s a swift and exciting read but has so much compacted into it that I’m looking forward to re-reading CRISIS, GRIT, TRIBES and ASH without any break between them - the drama is so good and I find I really care about what happens to the characters under such extreme dangers. Highly recommended.

Very tense and gripping . Couldn’t put it down but had to read in the sun to dissipate fear! The whole series to date has been brilliant but Part 4 takes it to new levels . You genuinely care what happens to Lucy - and now I am left wondering what’s going to happen next ? Hopefully next book on its way ....

All in all a fun read



I truly enjoyed this series so far. I do feel this book had a handful of plot holes and jumps. Portions didn't quite make sense or left you wondering how we got here. All in all a good read
