Oh my goodness.
These books may not be long, but they are sure as anything unputdownable! You will be thirsting for more after this epically well-written sequel to Monster Republic. These books need to be more well known - and Ben Horton's wish of Monster Republic hitting the big screen needs to come true!
I reccomend this series to any fan of sci-fi, dystopia, or even some good YA action. Never judge a book by it's cover - if you do, you will seriously regret it.
Need Book 3! Please please publish it soon!
Love from,
Diehard Monster Republic Fan since January 2010 ;P

Man, that was a tense ending, I seriously need the next book now!! There was so much tension in this book, and a lot of sad moments too. Jack Austin was a nice addition, Slater's become an even more pain in the ass, though his motives are a little understandable. Fry is, well, still the ugly-evil-scientist -mastermind, that you just wanna see burn in hell. Really happy I picked this up.
