5.0 out of 5 stars Don't stop the ride...I want to keep going!, June 26, 2001

Blood in the Ashes is terrific! Just when you get the idea that William Johnstone is going to bore us with the IPF and Hartline, he takes a wild twist. It has been talked about for decades by sociologists that should a disaster of this magnatude happen, cults of all types would rise up around the world. The Ninth Order is as despicable as Sam Hartline, only more of them. And the surprising discovery that Ben makes concerning Sister Voleta is enough to have your eyes popping out and re-reading it to see if what you thought you read was really that. This is also another great example of how each installment of the Ashes series is a book unto itself, but a part of the whole story. Sit down, strap yourself in, and get ready for a wild ride. Just don't expect the story to slow down long enough to get off..and who would want to?

This review is from: Blood In The Ashes (Ashes Series) (Paperback)

This book is full of deciet, while it doesnt fool you, the reader, it fools the characters of the book pretty well. It's got a bit of everything in it: betrayel, double-crosses, prisons, sex, violence, no rock and roll but I am sure you people can live without it.

Johnstone did an excellent job in this book as this time, his Rebels are attempting to rebuild the ideal of the Tri-State and he is left battling a new warload, Tony and the remains of the corrupt mercenary Sam Hartline and Sister Voleta of the cult group, The Ninth Order. Ike gets taken prisoner and escapes with Nina to reek havoc on the Ninth Order while waiting to meet up with Ben on his quest to free the Rebels from the corruption facing them. Ben must handle an internal coup to overthrow him and takes some time away from the Rebels with his soon to deliver girlfriend. Facing internal and external corruption Ben must push forward and defeat the hatred thrown at him from a distancedelivering swift justice to those who cross him and seek to throw him out of his leadership. I got a good laugh at how Emil gets put in his place within the story, but I'll leave that for you to read. This book was an excellent follow-up to Aanrchy in the Ashes and gets Ben back on track as he seeks to go out on his own to complete his tour of the former USA, documenting life after the apocalypse. Excellent book and one of the best I have read in his series thus far. I'm on Alone in the Ashes now, and am loving it. Half way done, I shall give a review as soon as I am finished.
