Relation To Books Storm (The SYLO Chronicles #2)
After a harrowing escape from Pemberwick Island, Tucker Pierce and his surviving friends—Tori, Kent, and Olivia—have finally reached the mainland, only to find that no one is left.That’s not their only sickening discovery. Moments before they are attacked by another of the mysterious black planes, they investigate one’s wreck and are horrified to find that it bears the logo of the U.S. Air Force. This can only mean one thing: the United States is at war with itself—the deadly technology of the Air Force against the brute force of the Navy’s SYLO unit, which still holds Pemberwick Island and its residents captive.
Tucker must lead his friends to safety, but his head is spinning. How can the Air Force be perpetuating such genocide against not only its own citizens, but the world? What is SYLO’s role in this, and why did Tucker’s parents betray him by allying with SYLO, whose commander, Captain Granger, killed Tori’s father at point-blank range? And what did his mother mean when she told him to trust no one?
Tucker, Tori, and friends set off cross-country on a quest for answers and, for Tucker, vengeance. But as one highway gives way to the next—and one death-defying escape precedes another—Tucker soon realizes that “trust no one” doesn’t just mean the U.S. military.

We picked up from the last cliff hanger of an ending & got going on a new adventure. A lot of interesting ideas & action that was squeezed into a lot of teenage angst. That's to be expected from a YA novel. There were some parts that really had my suspension of disbelief ready to snap, though. Still, it wasn't bad until the last quarter or so when it just got silly. And then it ended on another cliff hanger. Oy!I absolutely detest the stupid secret keeping thing. The first book is4.5 StarsWHAT I SAY: Now that the pacing problem is out of the way, you can finally appreciate how much detail MacHale puts into his plot. No scene is irrelevant to the bigger picture and there are so many threads of plot elements the story is basically a complicated knot of creepiness and thrill. WHAT I MEAN: asdfghjklzxcvbnjecldib??!?!?!l!l
D.J. MacHale-StormI have a lot of the same complaints with this book as I did with Sylo. The intensity was missing, some of the phrasing was awkward and wordy, and the characters just aren't likable enough. Again, this story has such a fantastic concept with these great opportunities to capitalize on it and MacHale seems to miss them completely. When you mix in the botched attempt made to write in a love story.... it's just not that great. The attempt at romance really bothered me. It just doesn
Having escaped from Pemberwick Island in Sylo, Tucker and his friends are trying to figure out who the good guys are. Tucker would have said Sylo, but they have killed his best friend and Tori's father. Along with Kent and Olivia, Tucker takes off to Portland, where the group sees the devastation that the black planes from the Air Force have created. Everyone who was not underground is dead, and whole buildings have been vaporized. In a hospital, they find a doctor and Jon, and hear a weird
Over the break, I read Storm by D.J.Machale and I really enjoyed it. I decided to read this book because someone recommended Sylo (First book of the series) and I liked it so much that I read the second book of the series, Storm. This book was great because it had lots of action like explosions, life and death situations, courageuos momements, and battles that are very interesting and suspenseful which make you want to read more and more of the book. This could be better if there were less
I just want the group to go to Nevada instead of taking all of these side trips. The first side trip they took was a trap. Which kind of tells you that the group should have just gone straight to Nevada. I also wish that Olivia would just go to Florida if she wants to or find a safe place and leave the group. I had a major issue with the romance going on in this book; does Tucker even care about Tori or not? Olivia is constantly getting in the way between Tori and Tucker and that annoyed me to
reminds me of the walking dead, but without the zombies. lol
