Raised: Part III
By Sharon Stevenson
~Book Review~
*Warning! Minor
Spoilers!*
RAISED: PART III continues the After Death Series, about Pete the Animate, who was killed and
raised to serve a nefarious purpose of his overseers. Of course, Pete has no
intention of being used even after death, and he fights back with his group of
friends. Although the nasty wizard Nick is gone, the stakes are higher than
ever as the charismatic King of Scotland makes decisive moves for power.
This is a fun
urban fantasy with real, gritty characters. Even the not-so “real” ones, like
Nine and Eight, clones of the beautiful starlet Britt, come to life, and you
can’t help but root for them. Leaps in relationships are made, Pete and Kit
realize something about themselves, and Mickey discovers more of his
fire-wielding power as he fights to save Tim.
The writing style
is as humorous, irreverent, and fast-paced as ever. I was able to read Part III
in a single sitting and am already look forward to Raised: Part IV. This is a
clever zombie book with realistic characters who eat burnt pizza, enjoy sex,
and power through all of the twists and turns they are faced with, and I am
very eager to see what happens next!
