Uptown Oracle Reads… The Change: London Orbital

Howard awakens with no memory of what has happened. He soon find’s out about The Change. After being taken in by a group of bikers who are learning to survive, their camp gets attacked. A large monster which can take on others forms begins to terrorise the group.

London: Orbital (The Change #1)

Throughout the entire book, I was questioning what was going on. Along with Howard we have no information about what happened during the Change. I was intrigued about what could have appeared and killed people on sight, but it was only touched on briefly for this book.

I felt that the characters were focused on more than an actual plot throughout the book. Howard seemed to be set up to be a chosen one style hero, but nothing ever came about from this. The Change: London was an extremely short book (and the rest of the series were as well). I managed to read it in a couple of hours on the train. After realising this I felt that Adams could have wrote further and expanded the plotline. If done correctly this could have improved The Change for me.

Although it was action packed, nothing seemed to be resolved. It felt very much like an introduction to an even bigger story which intrigued me to read the next book. Unfortunately I was disappointed as The Change: New York was not connected except The Change had happened there as well.

I received The Change: London Orbital* by Guy Adams as an e-book from the publisher via Netgalley. This is an unbiased and honest review.
