REVIEW:
Escape by Tracy Myhre is the first book in the Haven Series.
The novel is a post-apocalyptic romance novel that follows the main character, Beth as she journeys to Haven while trying to overcome many challenges including survival in the elements, strangers who are out to survive no matter the cost, and her own inner demons.
Over the course of Beth’s journey to Haven she is joined by old friends and new as each of them find their own way to survive in a new world.
The story is very well written mixing strong world-building, character building, giving the reader plenty of action and emotions from the various characters. The novel is written from a few different viewpoints which helps give the reader a good overview, not only of the journey many of the characters are on, but also how the disaster has impacted the different people from different backgrounds.
This was my first novel of this genre though I have seen many movies about a post-apocalyptic world. I really enjoyed the story and the characters mainly because the author has done an amazing job at creating a novel that feels like a real world. At times I easily imagined this could be our real future. The characters and their relationships were so engaging as a reader though for me Ryker was my favourite character who a lot of the time, holds Beth together and helps her through her emotional journey. Although this is the first book in a series, it had a clear complete story though left in a way you have an idea what the next chapter in the series is going to bring us. I look forward to book two and discovering what is next for the survivors at Haven.
