As it says at the beginning of The
Fallen, this book starts at the same time that The Sacrifice takes
place, and ends with a few of the characters from the two novels coming
together. This is the fifth installment of Charlie Higson’s absolutely amazing The
Enemy Series about a zombie apocalypse that takes place in London, England.
This isn’t going to be the most details review, because it takes place far into
the series, and the novel is over 500 pages.
This novel centers around the
characters who are at the museum and those who have been traveling to the museum.
It opens with the kids from Holloway arriving at the museum just as the sickos
have broken in. If not for the skills of Jackson, Achilles, and the rest of the
crew the chances of Justin or anyone else surviving the night was slim to none.
Once the two groups merge they decide to embark on an expedition to the medical
center nearby. While there, the small group of fighters and scientists learn a
few things about the disease that are not good. And while they lose a lot of
people on the way, they also pick up some “freaks,” mutated children trapped in
the medical center who know more than anyone they have ever come across.
Back at the museum, they are on the
lookout for whoever let the sickos in, and that would be Paul. Paul is slowly
killing of other kids, he seems to have caught the sickness. That isn’t the
worst part though, in the second to last chapter things are revealed about Paul’s
evil deeds that shocked me, things I didn’t see coming. And the cliffhanger at
the end, about Small Sam and Ella is just to much to handle!! Such an amazing
series, cannot wait for the next one.
