ENDWORLD # 3 Review

ENDWORLD # 3 THIEF RIVER FALLS RUN By David Robbins Genre: AdventureYet another good `un from David Robbins and the 5th EW book I've read. Blade, Hickock, Geronimo, & Joshua head off to the Twin Cities in search of medical equipment and supplies to help combat a problem the old people at the Home are having with premature senility including Plato the Home's leader. On the way to their destination they are attacked by a motorcyclist who Hickock kills, on the body they find a map which leads them to Thief River Falls where they encounter a mysterious gang of men who are part of the Watchers. After a firefight and the death of the Watchers they find a captive black woman called Bertha from Twin Cities in the gangs HQ along with supplies of weapons and food and a generator. The Alpha triad encounter some strange half-human half-animal creatures they christen Brutes which they kill. More Watchers arrive and the group from the Home are trapped in the bad guys old HQ and Blade is captured after a great battle with Watcher soldiers and two more of the Brutes. The Alpha Triad best the Watchers after a risky plan of Hickock's comes up trumps and they then decide to go back to the Home to recover as Hickock & Blade have both been fairly badly wounded. This book had plenty of action and once again the story moves at a brisk pace that keeps the reader engrossed from beginning to end, There is a high amount of humour in the book as well and I really like the banter between the member's of Alpha Triad and even the deeply religious Joshua joins in toward the end of the book as does Bertha who has obviously taken a big liking to "White Meat" aka Hickock. One aspect I really liked in the book was Joshua's internal battle with himself about whether he should take a life if he or his companions are threatened and it was interesting to see how he gradually changed as he experienced the harsher side of life. Another excellent book in the series and highly recommended.

Good Continuation of the Series

I enjoyed this book and I am continuing on to read the next book in the series. It is the continuation of Blade and his Alpha Triad's journey after their last attempt to reach the Twin Cities was cut short in The Fox Run. This book takes the three members of Alpha Triad and begins to give them their own personalities and fighting abilities. They no longer are just Alpha Triad, but now they are truly Blade, Hickok and Geronimo. Joshua even comes into his own in this book. The Triad heads off to Minneapolis/St. Paul where they meet multiple friendlies and unfriendlies.
