 * Good sections to read aloud: **

In book two, Eli and his family are adjusting to life outside of the compound and without their father who was killed at the end of book one. His twin brother, Eddy, gets frustrated at times when the family doesn’t seem like they used to (he also has to get used to the younger children who were born in the compound). Their mother is on edge half the time, and even Eli doesn’t want to venture out for fear of being seen as an outsider or freak, so they don’t do much. Eli has many unanswered questions, including things at his father’s company, YK, and he seeks out answers by digging on the internet…and finds a little more than he bargained for. A great sequel to a great first book!
