I wanted to dislike him, I really did but I just couldn't. There are a few new secondary characters introduced who are well done and really enhance Lena's journey through the Wilds and I can't not mention Julian, her new love interest. She at times seems numb and dead due to the shock of losing Alex and her entire way of life. The new Lena is much tougher after surviving the wilds and joining the resistance. Lena really grows in this novel, she states that the old Lena is dead and in some ways this definitely feels true. The story and writing is fluid, soulful you really empathise with the characters and can feel the hopelessness and uphill battle of trying to change their society.

Where Crossed so desperately tries to be poetic, deep and meaningful and falls short at the mark, Pandemonium delivers in spades. The writing is just superb, I can't fault it. There were many scenes in this novel that deeply impacted me, often by what Oliver leaves unsaid, once scene in particular with Raven, Blue and Lena left me in tears it was so harsh and beautiful. But he can't say it it is too close to passion, and passion is too close to love, and love is amor deliria nervosa, the deadliest of all deadly things: It is the reason for the games of pretend, for the secret selves, for the spasms in the throat." "If he were less well trained, and less careful, he would say hate. Where Delirium explores Lena's growth and love, Pandemonium is about the darker emotions like hate and revenge all of which are still considered part of "the" disease, amor deliria nervosa. It makes you think twice about about how we behave as individuals and shows the strength and resiliance of humanity regardless of what is thrown at them. What you get is a book that isn't shy of being harsh and painful. Normally this is something that would have left me twitchy and irritated, however the book is just that good I never once felt exasperated at all. Oliver managed to deliver a sequel where she strung you out the entire book before giving that information. The "now" chapters show Lena back in society as a Resistance agent.ĭelirium left you on such a cliffhanger, I needed to know what happened next. The "then" chapters complete the tale of what happens to Lena after Delirium finishes and she is fighting to escape and survive in the Wilds without Alex.


The novel is split into alternating chapters of "then" and "now". Where many sequels flounder or just fall flat, Pandemonium delivers and grows on its predecessor. What a wonderful follow up novel to Lauren Oliver's dystopian, Delirium.
