When I first started Sanctuary I was a little concerned. With three different perspectives would it be like so many other stories and have a hard time jumping from one character to the next, would I be able to connect with each character so quickly as I could if it was concentrated on just one character? By the time the second character was introduced I was hooked and found that I loved that there was three different perspectives and that I could see the progression of these different people as they tried to figure out how to cope with what was happening around them to their environment and the people in their lives.
I loved the way Pauline Creeden unfolded her story and characters. I didn’t feel rushed into connecting with what was going on or in connecting with the characters; I still got to evolve with each of them and develop opinions on their characters. As I devoured this book I could see in unfolding like a movie, I was in Pauline’s world. The only complaint I have was as I realized I was coming to the end I realized it was ending and I just wanted the story to keep going.
I loved the idea of this story too; for me it is everything that I love. The blurb I read said it was like a combination of Falling Skies and The Walking Dead and I would say that is a great way to describe this story.
I literally had to tear myself away from this amazing story that was beautifully written and instantly captivating and I was devastated when I finished it; the only time I could put it down was when my eyes were to tired to keep reading. I need to know more about this world, I need to know more about the characters.
