The Dead of Night

Tomorrow #2

by John Marsden

A few months after the first fighter jets landed in their own backyard, Ellie and her five terrified but defiant friends struggle to survive amid a baffling conflict. Their families are unreachable; the mountains are now their home. When two of them fall behind enemy lines, Ellie knows what must happen next: a rescue mission. Homer, the strongest and most unpredictable among them, is the one to take charge. While others have their doubts about his abilities, Homer has no choice but to prove them wrong - or risk losing everything to the enemy.

The compelling second installment in John Marsden's Tomorrow series sees our protagonists growing up far too quickly as they continue to fight the enemy. They should be hanging out in shopping malls, going to the movies and dodging homework, however our friends here are blowing things up and trying to hide, trying to survive, and it's taking it's toll.

Another quick, unputdownable read that I highly recommend. This series should be read by teenagers everywhere.

boof - reading these quick books to cleanse the brain-palate before diving into proust4 means i get awful far behind in my reviewing!

i am really liking this series, which is fortunate because i have once again done the thing i do, which is to buy all seven before reading the first one. dumbass. (untruth: book six is in the mail on its way to me - somehow out of print and hardish to get. but i got.)

dunno - i like where this series is going, and from what i gather about twilight and some other teen books i have seen panned on this site recently, it offers up an alternative to wispy helpless female lead characters. this girl isn't superhero-badass, just believably resourceful and intelligent enough to figure out what needs to be done, and doing it without wondering what the boyfriend will think, or what will happen if her hair gets mussed. and she isn't particularly likable, which is refreshing - she does all sorts of unheroic things and thinks petty thoughts - and i think that is a good thing - too many books for youngsters have this unrealistic golden-child character - it is totally off-putting.

all of the characters are well-drawn, and i enjoy the range of skills and behaviors they exhibit; they are very realistic teens responding to a horrifying situation. there are several good plot progressions here - a couple of things i did not see coming, and the way they are becoming acclimated to their new reality is wonderful - a nice slow burn thing happening here.

sex, death, and slaughtering lambs.
australia can definitely take care of itself.


this is the most boring review i have ever written. sorry if you are now asleep.

come to my blog!

I read the first book in this series over a month ago, and really liked how Hunger Games reminiscent it was. This book is the second in the Tomorrrow series and continues on from the closing events of book one. The series summary follows a group of young people who go out camping in the Australian outback, return to their hometown to find all of their homes and livelihoods completely ransacked and having to survive on their own. Some of the events that take place in both books one and two are quite brutal, but clearly show the means of taking risks just to survive. The only issue that let this one down for me was the amount of info-dumping throughout the novel. It made the pacing slow and sadly, made me feel a little bored. The last few chapters was when the action did pick up, which ultimately lead me to finish this rather than DNF. I will be putting this series on hold for the time being as I am generally unsure that I would like to continue on with it.

The second novel of the Tomorrow series written by John Marsden, it continues and picks up right where the first book ended. In the wake of losing Corrie and Kevin, and not knowing how either of them are faring in enemy territory, the group's morale deteriorates. Homer suggests the group attempt to track down Corrie and Kevin. They release a smoke bomb into the hospital and investigate during the evacuation. They discover that Corrie is comatose and that Kevin was beaten when he arrived.

From the second book i think this series just got better and better with all the twist and turns that the book had in store. While reading this i still could not believe of how good the group was of getting things planned a prepared with none of them having any training.


theres not much else i could say, i just really loved this book.


5 out of 5 stars.

The Dead of Night continued to affirm just how screwed I'd be if it were me instead of Ellie hunkered down in Hell.


"I love camping! I’m gonna go read up right now on which plants I can eat and which ones will kill me.”

Not that I don’t enjoy the occasional nature activity, it is just that my first reaction to being asked to go camping/kayaking/hiking is suddenly getting The Lemonheads “I Lied About Being the Outdoor Type” stuck in my head.

I can’t go away with you on a rock climbing weekend / What if something’s on TV and it’s never shown again. No, but really? My DVR might be full.

I appreciated how the sequel allowed for the reader to just jump right in the middle of things. The first book required a rather lengthy setup and introduction of characters which was of course necessary but I'd rather be reading how to MacGuyver household appliances into weapons, you know what I mean?

The Dead of Night also benefited from a smaller cast of characters. The number of kids in Ellie's crew is much more manageable this time around and it allowed me to finally feel like I had a handle on who was who and their individual personalities.

Ellie and the gang go through a lot of maturity and character growth in this book. The enemies are no longer shadows in the dark and the danger they threaten and the consequences of the teens' reactions to those threats are up close and personal. The enemy has a face now and the life and death decisions our heroes have to make and live with are more real because of it.

I also enjoyed the introduction of the adult counterpart to Ellie's camp in the completely inept Harvey's Heroes. Their antiquated views, contrived and meaningless attacks and endless red tape was a perfect example of how bureaucrats mess everything up.

Ellie and her friends may not have much experience in warfare but they are smart, resourceful and most of all willing to think of creative solutions. They aren't bound by many adults' fear of failure and inability to adapt.

Take it from me, as someone who grew up in a rural area, never bet against the farm kids. Me? I was useless. I wasn’t a farm kid--but I was their neighbor! One day in elementary school I asked my friend what she was eating for lunch and she replied “Fluffy”-- as in her cow Fluffy. These kids spend time raising an animal from birth to show it at a fair where the highest bidder buys it to butcher it. Farm kids do not mess around. They can drive and operate heavy machinery, are used to odd hours and manual labor and most likely have fired a shotgun once or twice in their lives.

All I know is, if I had to choose a clique from high school to band together with to survive in the wilderness and participate in some guerrilla warfare I’m picking the Future Farmers of America.

After bulldozer driving lessons for the first book, this book's Ellie-style survival skill I'd like to learn involves transforming my toaster into a weapon. I've already bookmarked it on How Stuff Works.

Screaming, crying, throwing up. I can’t get enough of these kids.

Five stars because I cried.

I have this stupid rule that I wait a month before I pick up a sequel but I cannot. I finished the first book last week and I just couldn’t keep myself from reading the second, I love these kids so much.

Tomorrow, When the War Began was very emotional because you follow a group of teenagers away for a few days who come back to her town being invaded. They are forced to grow up and figure things up very fast and it was brutal to see them change from kids to whatever they become at the end of it. It was very much a moral story about how much can you do for the people you love in such a dark time.

The Dead of Night was just something else. If Tomorrow was dark, this was something else. Even from the get-go, I’m more used to Leigh Bardugo were everything is convenient, but this? This is not YA at all. Thing that happen in this book had me horrified. If the first book was about finding their new selves, the second installment is about finding out how much this new self can do and endure. And it’s also a story about how important it is to take care of those around you.

I cried at the end. Part of me wanted to give it 4 stars because it was SO short. I felt there is a very awful bit in the middle where the gang meets another group of locals who are resisting and it was so tense (and disgusting) and I felt it was too rushed. I never say this, but this book needed 50 more pages to really highlight the cruelty, sexism, and awfulness from the guy that I think will be the new villain of the series.

I think this book shone because Marsden knows he’s got a very cool set of characters and he plays with the readers emotions with them. You liked someone? Well, tough luck, because this ain’t a fun book. We find out what happened with Corrie and Kevin. And we get to see how Chris deals with it all.

Robyn remains a badass. Homer, Lee, and Ellie get acquainted with different types of killing. And Fi, well, she exists (I still don’t like her :D).

[Nemo (The ☾Moonlight☾ Library) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Our poor heroes aren’t so plucky and full of bravado anymore, not since Corrie was shot in the back and Kevin took her to the hospital. But the gang decide they can’t sit around forever: they need more supplies for living in Hell, and they want to see if Corrie’s OK, and they need to take some action against the army that invaded their land, took over their homes, and took their families prisoner.

This book is much slower than Tomorrow, When the War Began. Our teen heroes are despondent, depressed and dejected. They crave adult company so they can go back to being kids. They want the stupid war to be over. There’s a lot of sitting around being bored and then trying to plan the next operation because really, what else are you supposed to do? They end up going for a look on the other side of Hell, leaving Chris behind because he’s in an alcohol-fuelled depression and they don’t have the wisdom, patience, or fortitude to look after him when there are bigger issues like how are they going to help Australia win the war?

When they do come across a group of adults and are thrown back into the roles of untrusted delinquent children, they realise they are much braver and smarter than their so-called ‘grown-ups’ and decide to take matters into their own hands. They’re still a smart bunch of kids, and their domestic terrorism if fuelled by the basic boyish knowledge of how to destroy things.

Character progression is not so much the focus of this filler book as character studies – each character has their own view on murder and killing in wartime. While the character don’t so much change over the course of the novel, their individual characteristics are solidified. Ellie, Lee and Homer become murderers while Fi is targeted for rape and Robyn holds on to her religious belief to guide her. Eventually they all come around and manage to decide that they need to do whatever it takes to cause trouble for the invaders-turned-colonisers because the war’s not over and the tide may be turning.

Ellie and Lee take their relationship further, and there’s a lot of angsting about that, too. Homer and Fi seemed to have cooled right off. As for Robyn, well, she wouldn’t do anything if it were the end of the world, would she? And as for Chris… I mean, it’s excellent being inside Ellie’s head, she’s such a realistic character and her narration really sucks you in and makes you believe you’re living and breathing what she’s experiencing. Sometimes it’s hard to remember that she’s ‘writing’ all this down as her own story, especially when she manages to quote page and page of perfect dialogue, but that’s a suspension of disbelief that has to be employed under the circumstances.

Like I said above, this is really more of a filler novel. Sure, in the end our heroes get a move on and cause the destruction suitable for the climax, but it’s after a lot of running for their lives and debating murder in wartime. It’s still a good book, just a bit of a surprise after the nearly non-stop action of the first book.

I quite enjoyed this second instalment in the Tomorrow series. I will admit, both books have been incredibly difficult to get into. I find myself bored and uninterested until about 50-100 pages into it, and then I cannot put them down. That's about the only flaw I can give these books.

This was raw and real, I loved the way things are unfolding and the new things that happened in this book. I like the discussions about heroes, villains, and humanity. I really enjoyed that these teenagers are still dealing with teenage issues on top of the adult issues they are dealing with. I just think these are incredibly well written and realistic dystopians for something that came out over 20 years ago.

[Becky · Rating 5 out of 5]

The Dead of the Night sees us return to Hell with Ellie and her friends as they struggle to come to terms with the great loss they endured at the end of Tomorrow When the War Began. It is a story about moral choices, about finding the courage to put yourself at risk time and again and most importantly, it is about endurance.


Ellie, Homer, Lee, Robyn, Fi and Chris all return to Hell. At first they are all lost to their shock and anger that the enemy managed to damage them so cruelly. The time comes when sitting around and wondering about the unmentionable fear in their hearts gets too much and they decide to take action. These six teens are transformed from high school kids into freedom fighters. The days of worrying about assignments are over. Now they worry about weapons, strategy and deciding on effective targets for their night time operations. The war is really just beginning for them as they journey deeper into the dark truth of what it means to go behind enemy lines.


Marsden continues to tell the tale of these teens through Ellie’s viewpoint. She records their story with a painful accuracy so much so that the others are rather resentful of her honesty at the beginning. Yet it is the friendship and love between the group that keeps them going.


In The Dead of Night the invading army begin to clear out the natives’ homes and prepare them for the settlers to move into. It also sees our teens find a band of adults who are free from the enemy’s grip. At first Ellie and the others feel relief at finding a group of adults. They think that they can now give the responsibility over to the people who are supposed to make big decisions. But it isn’t age that matters in times of war; it is having a leader who makes the right choices.


This novel is just as gripping as the first in the series. Truly, a page turner The Dead of Night has been yet again gasping for the next book in the Tomorrow series. I can’t help but ask myself at the end of finishing this book this question: What type of person can find the courage to kill someone in cold blood? Could I ever be such a person? This is the moral question at the heart of this book and it really has the power to make you think.

Plot summary: Following the invasion of Australia, Ellie and her friends are back in their secret valley, Hell, and dealing with the loss they suffered at the end of Tomorrow, When the War Began. But they can't stay in Hell forever. As colonists start to arrive in the Wirrawee area, they decide to take action. They're still not giving in without a fight.

Thoughts: As with Tomorrow, When the War Began, it's been years and years since I read this. I liked it. A lot. But it's never really stuck with me quite as much as the first book. Where TWTWB is about fear, this is about anger. Anger at themselves and the actions they've taken. Anger at the other guerillas they come into contact with. Anger at the invaders and the colonists. Anger with each other.

In so many ways, The Dead of the Night is Australian history repeating itself. Okay, so there are slightly more explosions than there were when Europeans first settled in Australia in the late eighteenth century. But so much of that anger, that "why are they here?", that "it's OUR land" attitude could be equally applicable to a story about a group of Indigenous Australians hiding out from European colonists.

It has a wonderful mix of the every day and guerilla action - despite the war, life is still the same as it ever was. They're still teenagers - they fall in love, they fight, they have inappropriate emotional reactions, they get upset when adults don't take them seriously. And it's this, more than anything, that brings realism to the story for me.

Still heartbreaking at times, but without as much of the "Holy crap, this could happen to me" factor of the first book.

The Tomorrow series was my favourite as a teenager. We were reminded of it on a recent hike - imagining coming back from the hike to find a war. And we said we should re-read… now I can see Meg is reading book 1 woooo! I have read book 1 too many times so I skipped ahead to book 2 to start the reread. It’s as good as I remember. The plot is just so clever and nail biting. I think the storyline is really believable, which is scary! And I just love the characters so much.

SPOILERFREE REVIEW (as long as you know what happens in Tomorrow, When the War Began)

Plot (the first book)
Eight teenagers go camping in the bush, when they come back, their country is invaded and war is about to break out. Now they have to fight to win back their homes.

Stuff I Want To Get Out Of My Head

Okay, first off: I have not read the first book Tomorrow When The War Began, only watched the movie (I KNOW, I KNOW)

Everyone who's read the book (or watched the movie), knows that it ends in a pretty huge cliffhanger. I personally love the film adaptation and would've loved to see a sequel. But - apparently - that's not gonna happen.

Still, I wanted to find out what happened after Corrie and Kevin drove off to the hospital. And that's where my first critism starts...
Right, I have that tick, that whenever I get lazy reading, I tend to skim through the back of the book (I don't know why), and in this case, that was a huge mistake. Because the back of the book literally spoiled what happened with Corrie and Kevin! It says - I quote - "17-year-old Ellie and her friends have survived the invasion, but Kevin is imprisoned and Corrie is alive, but in a coma".



SERIOUSLY?!
I mean, I don't know what genius had that idea but COME ON.

Putting that aside, I actually really kinda liked this book. I mean, it didn't blow me away, and it took me a while to read it. Almost a week, can you believe it? For 260 pages

I don't know, I should really just stop trying with other genres. I seem to have a hard time getting into anything that is not sci-fi or fantasy.

Still, this wasn't a terrible book by all means. I mean, I think if I was into war books, I would probably love this. But I prefer this story on the big screen (sorry not sorry). And also: WHY AREN'T THEY MAKING THE SEQUEL A MOVIE. This would be awesome!

There are so many badass things happening in this book, and it's also pretty short -> perfect movie material!

In a nutshell: Not my favourite genre, sorry. I loved the characters from the movie but that made me really biased going into this.
There is also a lot of humour in this and I love how realistic Marsden kept the characters. So that's a good thing, I guess.
A really great war book but not my slice of cake...

THE DEAD OF NIGHT is the second book in the amazing Tomorrow Series. It picks up where TOMORROW, WHEN THE WAR BEGAN ends and is just as exciting!

Ellie and her friends continue to battle against unknown invaders. They are forced to act like a military force without any of the training. Even though they are sticking close to home, they feel they are contributing to the fight and causing the enemy some hardship.

In an attempt to locate an alternate escape route out of Hell, the teens stumble upon what appears to be a base camp of some sort. After some reconnaissance, they decide the “army” is local and safe to approach. They are welcomed to the camp and given a place to sleep, food to eat, and jobs to do. Ellie is especially glad to be there – relieved the adults are going to be in charge of making big decisions again. She doesn’t particularly like how the women of the camp are treated though. Apparently, the leader, Harvey of Harvey’s Heroes, thinks women should be in charge of the cooking and cleaning while the fighting and strategizing is done by the men. As you can imagine, Ellie and Harvey don’t get along very well.

Their time with Harvey’s Heroes doesn’t last long as disaster strikes during one of the missions Harvey organizes. Ellie and her friends are on their own once again. Realizing they did more damage when they were on their own causes them to look for another way to upset the enemy. They find their opportunity in Wirrawee.

THE DEAD OF NIGHT contains more of the same action and adventure as the first book in the series. The big bang of an ending will definitely have your scrambling for the third. Ellie continues to be the narrator of the story, which gives the reader a great insight to her thoughts and emotions. The kids can’t help but change with everything they’ve seen and done and it is interesting to see how the different characters react to the horrors of war.

[NOTE: There is a sex scene in this book. It isn't sickly sweet or overly graphic, but it is straightforward.]

This is book #2 in the Tomorrow series. I completely enjoyed book #1 and I think I liked that one more than book #2. This one was slow to start and I found the writing kind of tedious. But even with that said, the story line gets extra points for the creativity.

The action eventually does pick up. I'm glad I didn't DNF this one. The start was 2 stars. The middle 3 and the latter quarter was 4. So I'll settle for 3 stars.

Pasado la primera impresión y la subida de adrenalina, los jóvenes aventureros escondidos del ejército invasor empiezan a ver la realidad de la invasión: el cansancio, las tensiones internas, adultos decepcionantes, un enemigo no tan "modélico".

La guerra es sucia, no hay blanco ni negro, sino escalas de grises, y nuestros protagonistas están empezando a verlo.

The Dead of the Night takes place not too long after the events at the end of the first book, Tomorrow When the War Began. It has been a couple of months since the invasion of Australia and the group of committed teenagers decide that they've had enough of sitting around waiting for something to happen and instead band together to change their dire situation.

The Dead of the Night contains many of the familiar elements we came across in the first book - action, adventure, survival, and a little romance, but I thought it was much more powerful in some ways as we have got to know each character. I think character development is always an exciting thing to read about because it enables the reader to really feel as if they are part of the story and watching as the characters grow and change. People can change, especially if they've gone through something as life-threatening and horrific as these teenagers have. In The Dead of the Night, every character does something they never thought they'd do, something that alters the way they see themselves, in particular Ellie and Fi - the two most contrasting characters. In this sequel, the group come across adults who have set up camp for themselves, much like the teenagers have in Hell. The way they are treated by this new group of people really highlights that we are reading about teenagers, teenagers who wouldn't usually be experiencing the things they have been. It made the entire situation seem much more horrifying and I wondered whether it was true to life - in an invasion, would young people be seen as a help or a hindrance?

The Dead of the Night is as dramatic as ever and threw the group into warfare, with lots of bloodshed. We again see each character deal with the ethics and dilemmas of war, and see them wondering just how far they should go to protect themselves. I feel like we're about to go on even more of adventure with Ellie and friends in the next book, The Third Day, The Frost.

Thank you Quercus for providing this book for review!

I also reviewed this book over on Pretty Books.

This second instalment in the popular Australian YA series is everything a sequel should be. The characters more focused, the danger heightened, and the plot twists just as interesting. Like the first in the series, I read this in one sitting and can't wait to start book three, luckily which I have already bought.

This entry is very similar in plot to the first entry, with the kids sizing up and taking down a target within the invaders base, but this time we get to hear a little more about who these invaders actually are, although still not enough to feel like we have actually learnt anything. A more personal villan is introduced in the character of Major Harvey, who I couldn't help but associate as a similar character to Dolore Umbridge in the Harry Potter series. The story overall feels more focused than the first, and now that we know the characters, there is more action, and more of an adult theme, as the kids truly ask themselves can they kill in cold blood? and what the mental ramifications are when they do.

I've so far given the two instalments of this series 5 stars, which I don't often do unless I think a book has re-read value, which I believe this series will have (if it keeps up this level of quality through it's seven instalments). I thought I had read to at least book number four when I read this when I was younger, but it turns out I only read to the end of this one, which means everything that comes will be completely new to me.

I still don't know if I'm enjoying these as I enjoyed them when I was younger, or they are generally books that anyone could enjoy...but with the 'Hunger Games' being such a big presence now, I can't imagine anyone enjoying that and not liking this series.

The Dead of the Night follows the aftermath of the war and taking over Autralia; the story shows bravery, courage, friendship and their morals are being tested. Corrie is in a coma after being shot and Kevin is taken in as prisoner in the Showgrounds were the other prisoners are held. Parts of the book were heavily emphasised morality and killing soldiers, and conflicting issues such as either being a soldier and also being a teenager (schooling, futures, aftermath of the war etc) I liked both of the books Tomorrow When the War Began and the second book is really well written, the characters were well developed and new characters were introduced in the book, which I'm looking forward to reading the third book. For me it was 4 stars 🌟 ✨️

[The Honest Book Reviewer · Rating 4 out of 5]

A great sequel to Tomorrow, When the War Began.

What I like about this series, and this book, is that the teenagers are written with realism, despite the situation being unreal. And that is one big strength with the series. What we see are a group of teenagers forced to grow in ways they never imagined, to contemplate issues of morality they never imagined, and to understand that sometimes it's going up be up to them. To understand that life is not fair. But to also understand that there's strength in a team as well as in an individual. There are many other things going on in this book, but above all it's also about resilience and also about being a teenager under extreme pressures.

Another great thing is the teenagers aren't perfect. They argue, they make mistakes. They have that sense of invincibility young people seem to have, but they're also unsure and vulnerable at times. They are all strong characters, male and female, but they're not superhero strong. They're just normal teenagers trying to stay alive.

The action scenes are written in a way to pull the reader into the book. They're tense and you have no idea if the characters will survive. That's another strength in this series. There are consequences to actions.

I wish I had teen books like this when I was younger, but at least I get to enjoy them now. Because I can imagine loving these when I was a teenager.

[Cimone Smolen · Rating 4 out of 5]

The second book to the Tomorrow Series stacked up well I think, just like the first one it kept me interested the whole time and was easy reading in my opinion, a good page turner.

I’m interested to see what is to come of Ellie and her friends as they continue to try to make a difference in their hometown after the invasion. I was quite shocked with the death of one of the friend group, quite sad really, but it does make the story feel very real, and hit harder when you don’t have the thought of ‘everyone will be okay’ in the back of your head.

I love that this is based in Australia, it’s funny reading terms or sayings that only Aussies would know what the bloody hell was going on without a Google search, in fact at the start of my version of this book there is a glossary for Aussie words 🤣🔍

Overall, great story so far.

I’m really liking this series. I hope it continues to be as good as it is now. I’m enjoying the characters a lot - I think this series really would have impacted me had I read it as a teenager, so I’m pretty happy to be reading it as an adult.

Creepy, heartbreaking and interesting. Excited to keep reading through the series!
