Recently I read Tomorrow When the War Began because I missed out on reading it when I was a teenager. Which left the story unfinished and I felt I wanted to know what was going to happen. So I’ve now completed book 2; The Dead of the Night. I actually preferred this book over the first, the innocence of the kids is now gone, while still having to struggle against the enemy that now have to struggle with sexual desire too (actually I don’t think the struggled they just ‘hopped on’…so to speak). The main protagonist Ellie has ended up killing a man and there is the remorse going on in her head while everyone else seems to think she would be ok killing again. All in all I think it was a darker novel and that is what I enjoyed most about it.
