Review

THE INFINITE SEA picks up shortly after the climactic events of The 5th Wave: Cassie's finally united with her little brother, Sam, but also a small band of young soldiers who are still reeling with the knowledge they were being conditioned to kill fellow humans instead of aliens. The group holes up waiting to see if Evan Walker survived his self-sacrificing rampage that saved them (Cassie believes he has, but her foil, Ringer, thinks otherwise), but when two members of their party go missing, everyone must come to terms with the fact that there are even more devastating dangers than the Silencers who can kill with abandon and precision. These few left alive wonder what new horrors are in store for them and what the future holds, not just for them but for all of humanity.

Yancey brilliantly continues his sci-fi epic with an equally enthralling second story. This one raises the stakes, deepens characterizations, and adds in enough startling twists to keep readers desperate for more. Cassie's back but more confused than ever; she has no idea how to deal with her traumatized brother (who blatantly prefers Ben) or her seemingly misguided but deep-seated faith that Evan Walker will be back -- for her. In contrast to Cassie is Ringer, who's bumped up from supporting player to main character. We learn more about her past (including her actual name and what it takes to make her finally laugh) and root for her as she embarks on a mysterious journey that leads her, like Cassie in the first book, to new discoveries.

There's so much in The Infinite Sea that should be experienced on the page and not through a review. Just know that it has more of your favorite characters, lots of new heroes and villains (and those who are somehow in both camps), and even a powerful dose of breathtaking romance. If you think you have everything figured out, you're most definitely wrong, and that's a good thing. Be prepared to put off sleep and other responsibilities as you dive into Yancey's Infinite Sea, a book so immersive you'll want to immediately re-read it the moment you're done.
