Patrick Ness writes fantastic cliff hangers, guys! Diving into the last book- Monsters of Men now! What the heck was that ending? That Cliff-Hanger? So, I dived into the next book and guess what? Another fantastic Cliff-Hanger that has me hooked to the story. This is not supposed to be in this review but I would really like to talk about the ending for book one.

This is the second title in the “Chaos Walking” trilogy. “The Ask and the Answer” is a tense, shocking and deeply moving novel of resistance under the most extreme pressure. Immediately separated from Viola and imprisoned, Todd is forced to learn the ways of the Mayor’s new order.īut what secrets are hiding just outside of town? And where is Viola? Is she even still alive? And who are the mysterious Answer? And then, one day, the bombs begin to explode… We were in the square, in the square where I’d run, holding her, carrying her, telling her to stay alive, stay alive till we got safe, till we got to Haven so I could save her – But there weren’t no safety, no safety at all, there was just him and his men…įleeing before a relentless army, Todd has carried a desperately wounded Viola right into the hands of their worst enemy, Mayor Prentiss. We aren’t anything else.”- The Ask and The Answer, Patrick Ness. *Note: All thoughts and opinions are on my own and this is a spoiler-free review but there will be mild spoilers from the first book so. So, without further ado, let us get into the book review! We follow Todd and Viola as they get separated from each other while a war between men and women rages in between of them. ‘The Ask And The Answer’ picks up right where the first book left off. So, it makes logical sense for me to pick up the sequel for it.ĪND OH MY GOSH, GUYSS! I LOOOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH! IT IS EVEN BETTER THAN THE FIRST BOOK IN THE TRILOGY!

Of course, if you have read my ‘The Knife of Never Letting Go’ review, you will know that I loved the book. The first book being ‘ The Knife Of Never Letting Go ‘ which I had reviewed it on my blog. Hey Guys! It is Max here and I will be doing a book review for ‘The Ask and the Answer’ by Patrick Ness today! The Ask and The Answer is the second book in the Chaos Walking trilogy.
