In the first book, Year One, of the trilogy by Nora Roberts that is 357 pages, we experience a world gone dark and led into chaos. As we discover early in the book half of the world’s population has been killed. It is never made clear exactly by what, all we know is that it is some sort of magical force. Therefore, as New York City has begun to become to dangerous with enforcement officers caputuring normal people such as Ralph the hacker and magical people such as Lana and her boyfriend Max alike, we begin to see as they attempt to journey west to save themselves.
I loved the magical element of the book. I was a huge fan of the Percy Jackson series and all of Rick Riodian’s books, so it was awesome to see a serious like this that sorta related to my favorite series. Not to mention the post-apocalyptic world the survivors must overcome in order to reach their goal in the west and hopefully salvation. The book was so entertaining from start to finish and I look forward to reading the next two installments. Roberts definitely did a great job with this novel which I highly recommend.
