What a great read! I received Hell Divers right before tropical
storm Isais hit Long Island. I had just started the book when our
power went out, leaving me in the dusk. I had only the flashlight
in my phone, which was almost out of power. To give you an idea of
how impossible this book is to put down, I went to my car, turned
on the ignition, and sat in my idling auto reading while my phone
charged. After that, I went back upstairs and revisited my days as
a kid, reading books with a flashlight in bed when I should have
been sleeping. I had to find out what happened in this thrilling
story. Buy this book. Read it. Enjoy!-- "Catherine Asaro, Nebula
Award-winning author of The Vanished Seas"

as they face impossible odds. A must for fans of smart
postapocalyptic storytelling.-- "Sam Sisavath, bestselling author
of the Purge of Babylon series"
