Find all of my reviews on my blogI received a copy of Lorelai You ll Never Die from the author in exchange for an honest reviewI was really pleased to receive a copy of this for review because Laura is a writing friend of mine Over the years I ve seen her grow and flourish as a writer and when it comes to writing science fiction and post apocalyptic fiction it wouldn t surprise me at all if Laura has her very own shelf in the science fiction section in years to comeThis isn t a book about saving the world this is a book about surviving when the world would rather you didn t We re not told all the details about why the world is the way it is but we re given enough information to piece it together and in all honesty it doesn t matter How society crumbled isn t important but how Lorelai is going to get through it isI actually really loved that this isn t a story about inciting a rebellion and saving the world and starting again this isn t the world s story it s Lorelai s and I think following one woman on a uest to the west feels genuine than any story to revive society It s such a simple idea to follow one person from the east to the west but it s pulled off wonderfully and the adventures Lorelai has on the way mean her life s certainly never boringIt was also fantastic to see a heroine who is completely unashamed of her sexual appetite Lorelai likes sex and the apocalypse hasn t changed that why should it I did find some sections at the beginning of the book a little jarring there was a lot jumping around between various people so much so that I wondered if I d misread the blurb and this was actually a collection of short stories but soon it settled into something a lot coherent and that s when I really began to enjoy the book Some of Laura s descriptions are just beautiful she has a real talent for writing post apocalyptic settingsI would have liked to have seen a few women as the majority of survivors Lorelai encountered were men but I did love her relationship with fellow survivor Beattie who is a little cutie Lorelai You ll Never Die is both bleak and hopeful Laura isn t afraid to write about some of the worst kinds of human beings but it s impossible to feel completely hopeless with a heroine like Lorelai at the centreIf you like post apocalyptic fiction then I recommend checking this out and I can t wait to see what Laura comes up with next

Laura Konrad ´ 7 characters characters Lorelai Youll Never Die 107 O survive Her adventures forced her to adapt in ways she never thought she could made her feel in ways she never thought she would In the apocalypse you either learn to adapt or you d. How do I tell you about this wonderful book without spoiling all of the fun parts Like the part with the axe I ll tell you what it is and what it is not and maybe you ll begin to understand what made it such an enjoyable readLorelai You ll Never Die is the story of one badass woman on a journey westward through the remains of a once thriving country that s been ravaged by a series of catastrophes so traumatic that what s left is only wasteland There s a certain amount of ambiguity in the storyworld we re never told exactly where this all happens what year it is or what started the end of the world And that s the perfect setup for this book because all of those details are extraneous to what s really at stake here Lorelai has a destination but the name of that location makes little difference it s about how she gets there whom she meets along the way and everything she must do to survive She s going west the world is a shell of its former self and what s left of society isn t humanity s finest Those are all the details you need to get pulled into this bookA close reading of the text provides hints to some of the answers for those that simply can t stop wondering what set everything in motion but I never once felt that the lack of definitive answers took away from my enjoyment of the storyCharacters are the heart of this work and there s no shortage of interesting people along Lorelai s way She meets hitmen rapists psychopaths cannibals and soldiers to name a few At the start few of the characters Lorelai meets linger in the story either due to a violent turn of events or the fact that she doesn t stay in one place for very longWhether they re in the book for five lines or five pages every character has an impact on Lorelai Brief encounters at the start of her journey echo in the later pages especially when we as readers begin to distrust every new acuaintance almost as much as Lorelai While not every character in the book has a developed history that we re aware of it s impossible to meet each new one without wondering how they ve survived in such a world Lorelai comes across some new unknown survivor and there s a process happening in her mind as well as the reader s a survivalist s mathematics where numbers are replaced by expressions body postures and weapons and every euation is a way to categorize new dangersThe structure of the book mirrors the wandering almost episodic nature of Lorelai s life in the post apocalyptic world Instead of a novel we re given an assortment of short stories that form a whole There s a common thread running through them but their separation allows for different kinds of stories to be told within the larger workThis framework made reading the book an adventure in its own right because I was never uite sure what sort of tale to expect next It allowed for moments of surrealism to bleed into the story or even fantastic interludes that clearly didn t match up with the rest of the book s general tone The narrative has room to breathe room for different reading experiences and ultimately that s what makes Lorelai You ll Never Die than another apocalypse storyPacing is another strong point with moments of contemplation throughout all the chaos that never slow down the story s forward momentum It s indicative of the way this book was written which is to say it s deep and compelling without being weighed down by its own prose The writing doesn t demand too much of the audience but it isn t simple or boringMy only criticism of the book involves its ending one that I felt came on too fast and didn t show me enough impact Again it s hard to talk about without spoiling anything but I will say this the ending left me wondering what was at stake what had been learned and oddly what it had all been for all that time It s not that the ending didn t make sense or that it was contrary to everything before it but it lacked the conviction of the previous ninety percent Maybe this was intentional as a way to express the uncertainty of Lorelai s future as the book comes to a close though it felt like the story ran out of steam Overall this is a minor complaint The ending didn t take too much away from my reading experience and I don t think it s enough to deter anyone from picking this book upLaura Konrad has started off Dryden Apoc in stunning fashion and I m excited to see what she s coming up with next Her vision of the post apocalyptic wasteland that Lorelai treks through is one that will delight readers with its familiarity while simultaneously unsettling their notions of what this story is or should be It s the foundation for a whole host of amazing stories that are yet to arrive and it confronts many of the most difficult troubling issues that we struggle with in our own world You ll cheer for Lorelai watch her struggle over and over again and cringe with her when the darkness of a destroyed civilization seems too much to overcome You ll wonder how she can continue to survive what it will take for her to keep going and you ll be surprised than once at the answers to those uestionsThis review was originally published on my blog at damianroachecom
