I felt her desolation at the losses she suffered, and the layer of cynicism and bitterness she coated herself in to survive was frustrating but understandable. Jane goes through a harrowing journey throughout this story. Neither of them was perfect and Ireland’s eye for fulfilling character progression that kept me hooked. I appreciated the depth and complexity of these two characters. I flew through this 560 paged tome in three days because her distinct authorial voice for both Jane and Katherine was a delight to read. Justina Ireland’s writing was a joy to read. Unfortunately, the supposedly Egalitarian town is plagued with the same demons that haunted Summerland and Jane and Katherine are forced to overcome yet another trial out west. Jane and the crew have escaped the shambler overrun town of Summerland and are well on their way to their city on the hill, Nicodemus. Her character work was standout and the conclusion to this duology was satisfying.ĭeathless Divide kicks off right after the ending of Dread Nation. Despite that, I still think Justina Ireland is a great writer. While Deathless Divide was a fun reading experience overall, I didn’t love everything about this sequel and ultimately prefer its predecessor Dread Nation.
