My Review:
In Judgement Derry and her friends are back and have finally
saved everyone from the Sweepers. They have put Craniopolis out of operation
and have stopped the Sweepers from extracting people. They are now all living
happily and safe in Shoshane City with the riders, the Undergrounders, the
clones and everyone else. Well they believe they are safe until they intercept
a message that was meant for Craniopolis. They find out that Craniopolis is not
the only place that is creating clones. They learn that they may be other
places out there like Craniopolis that is experimenting on people. Derry is now
very determined to stop the other outposts before they learn that Craniopolis
has been put out of commission and they send more Sweepers their way.
While Derry is getting everyone ready for battle she has a
lot more problems on the home front that has her upset but there isn’t much she
can do about it but just let it be for the moment. Not only does she have to
worry about the Sweepers but she also has to deal with the rogues as well. She
thought that maybe she and the rogues were even but she soon learns that with
rogues that is not the case. Most of them are only out for number one and will
kill if that is what it takes to be number one but they are also some good
folks that are rogues and they are also some that just like to play fair. The
latter may be just what has saved Derry’s butt on occasion.
Is Derry ready for another fight? Are her and her friends
capable of fighting so close on the tail end of their last fight with the
Sweepers? Well if they want to live then they had better be. Because once they
arrive the sweeping will start all up again if they can’t stop them for good
this time or so they hope.
The Sweepers won’t know what has hit them when they meet up
with Derry for the first time. Derry is a very strong and willed person for
someone so young. She is also a very smart person. But she was taught by the
best, Big Ed, an Undergrounder like herself. Yeah ole’ Big Ed finds a campion
and maybe a little love like Derry and Sven, Owen and Nikki and like some others
too. Yeah even clones can fall in love.
I have really and truly loved following Derry, Jerome,
Rummy, Sven, Owen, The Ghost and others on their journeys to stop the Sweepers.
I have enjoyed learning of their lives as Undergrounders and the traveled along
with them on their stay in the city of Shoshane. I love the world that the
Norma Hinkens has created for The Undergrounders. It is unlike anything I have
read before. I would definitely recommend The Undergrounders Series to anyone
who loves a good story. It will leave you wanting more. I would suggest that
you start with the first book in the series Immurement and then go on to the
next one Embattlement and then Judgement. Yeah you would need to read them in
order so that you will know what is going and you want be confused about
anything. The Undergrounders is one of those series you would like to see on
the big screen.
