I am overjoyed to share that I didn't even realize I had moved from volume 1 into volume 2. So many times when an author writes a series, it's obnoxiously obvious when you move from book to book. For some reason most authors feel the need to rewrite the short version of the preceding book, or books, into the first few chapters of any following tomes. T Shock is the second volume in K. This is annoyingly redundant to me. Classic example from my childhood that made me this way, The Babysitters Club series.

Every book was the same for the first two to three chapters! Griffiths has renewed my faith in common sense when it comes to literature series. Obviously, if we the readers enjoy your book, we are more than capable of searching out the previous stories, thank you very much! Volume 2 of the Wildfire Chronicles flows smoothly from Volume 1. It also brings about a few new characters for us to enjoy. Though some, only briefly. It is a "zombie" type book after all. John Francis is a new character who has information on the Project Wildfire epidemic and is ex-military. He seems like the type of guy who would benefit our little rag tag group of survivors from volume 1, but we learn they've done a pretty good job of learning to survive on their own.

There are lots of twists and turns in this volume and piles more action!

It's difficult to go into too much detail without giving away too much of the story. This volume is quite shorter than the first. I look forward to continuing my quest deeper into the post apocalyptic world that is a Project Wildfire chaotic, murderous, and out of control mess.

Griffiths says this novella was written as a thank you to those who had read "Panic", and that the story here would have slowed down the first book too much to include it. However, "Shock" is an interesting intermission in the main story - though I feel it's a vital component of the series as a whole. Jan 07, Catherine Vickers rated it really liked it. I admit, you need to read book 1 first at it does read a little disjointed. I enjoyed this book as much as book 1, but it took me awhile to land on my feet and realise exactly what was happening.

Once I got there, I thoroughly relished the new character. All comes together in the end. Recommended, even if you're not a zombie lover, which I'm not, then again, is anyone?! Aug 15, Adam Mahler rated it really liked it. Digging these books This book was just long enough to want more.

The story is evolving and I'm loving every second of it. Jun 27, jonathan sanford rated it it was amazing. Good book A good extra to follow on from panic. Well worth a read, but after panic. Bonus that it is free. Let's figure out what's going on in this crazy messed up world. If you're curious about the precursor to this book, check out my review of Panic here: Griffiths' Shock picks up in the aftermath of Panic with a pseduo-military faction trying to locate the man who started it all with the Infected and then secluded himself in a bunker: But what they find in the bunker squelches that objective as Chamberlain is de Zombies.

But what they find in the bunker squelches that objective as Chamberlain is dead--from the previous text--and the groups own lives are in peril as one of their own didn't secure the bunker as they descended into its depths and mysteries. The narrative did remain consistent in its rotation omniscience from Panic, but it stayed far more centrally located on John, a special forces type guy who is trying to locate Chamberlain. The narrative was quickly paced and chock full of action as it starts to fill in the backstory of what was taking place before the outbreak of the Infected; however, it could use a good copy edit as there were numerous issues with spacing between words being nonexistent, which, although it created new words, made it distracting and a little difficult to read.

This portion builds further suspense for the next section, which I hope will answer a few more questions than it raises. Overall, I'd give it a 3. Apr 14, Heather rated it liked it. Long story short, John ends up on the run with our heroes. But they do need each other. I like the fact that trust is not won easily in this crew. The idea that they can survive together is tough to buy into.

There is character development, but despite that some of the characters feel rather flat.

I'm guessing enough people complained since the first and second book are free. Not sure how long this will last but this is one truly talented author with words so do not miss out! This is sad to me and I would have happily paid the ninety nine cents for this novella. You are practically getting for free! Ok, done now I promise lol The reason I am giving this book one less star than the first is that I was hoping to dive right back into the story with the characters I had come to know in the first book.

This novella does take place at the same time but with some new characters thrown in on their own mission.

If it were up to me I would label this one 1. Now to start the third one. Mar 18, Jonathan Currinn rated it really liked it. This sequel is a short novella, that works perfectly in the series. A little confusing at first, it takes some time to get to know a whole new range of characters.

They are part of a team with some backstory that is definitely needed. This team discovers the bunker found in the first novel. Encroaching on the scenes we have already read about, it's like an out of the book implosion on what happened in the previous book from a historic point of view.

I am excited to see how the continued events unfold. Griffiths got in store for us? Why did I read this book after giving book 1 only 2 stars? Because it was free and only 56 pages.

Other Books in This Series

I wanted to wash the wholly unnecessary cruelty at the end of book 1 from my brain a bit and see if there was enough story intrigue in book 2 to look into a third. As expected from a 56 page story, it wasn't heavy on characters except one that seems to have some bearing based on descriptions in future books. You definitely cannot read this without spoiling a hit of book 1, but it feels like you can Why did I read this book after giving book 1 only 2 stars? You definitely cannot read this without spoiling a hit of book 1, but it feels like you can read on without needing this one either.

It moved well enough, but it could have been more built out on back stories and character building on more than one team member to give more insight into how they all came into the job of going into the aftermath of book 1. Jan 11, Terry added it. These remind me of serial stories that came out in the early 's in weekly papers.

Some were about cowboys and Indians, Andrew Greely for the NY Times did a long series about the Civil War complete with often intricate drawings of war ship ships, famous generals sitting around tables, battle scenes etc. The only thing lacking from Griffiths' series set in a modern Apocalyptic disaster is the graphic art. But with writing as excellent as Griffiths, who needs graphics? I just wish I had known I was buying a set of short stories instead of a nice long novel.

Feels like I was cheated out of a good long read. Dec 02, Mary Trotter rated it really liked it. I had an internal debate with myself as to whether or not I was going to read this book. The first book really messed with my head. Trouble is, the target is a man named Victor, and it looks like somebody else got to him first.
