Escape from Furnace: Execution; First Impressions

After reading just two chapters of the whole book, I am already very perplexed. The fist couple of sentences talk about Alex Sawyer in his berserker form. He is climbing on top of the tallest building in some city of England. He realizes in his earlier flash-forward from the previous book that it was him; the monster on the building. The government takes Alex down with two attack helicopters. As he drifts off in the distance, he awakes into a flashback. Alex is alone, in the middle of the woods. He can's move. Eventually, he sees Alfred Furnace crucified on a pine tree as a little boy. After being charged for murder and sentenced to die, he looks straight at Alex and mouths "I didn't do it."

The chapter ends there, and I have no idea from where the book will go. I am very intrigued and confused at the same time. I look forward to reading more. As of right now, we have a blog post break for 2 weeks. I will not post until then. Bye now!

  2. This book seems very confusing, why is the government after him?

  5. If you only read 2 chapters in 2 weeks you need to pick up the pace. Also you misspelled can't its not "can's".

  6. The cover of the book is already really revealing of what the book is about and clears up some of the questions I already have for this book. The cover of the book, the crucification and the accused murders lead me to think this is a really dark novel.
