My Goodreads review: Impact Winter Season 2

[ankh_hpl]

Impact Winter Season 2 by Travis Beacham

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Continuing Season 1's highly addictive blend of SF, horror, & Buffy style vampire-hunting angst in a dark post-asteroid world, this episodic audio drama is great for car trips with like-minded folks. (But not, perhaps, very young folks. This would carry a solid R rating.)

The plot is nearly impossible to summarize coherently, but suffice it to say that many danging questions from Season 1 (including why Earth got smacked by a life-changing chunk of rock) finally get explained. There are revelations & prophecies, new vampires made, old vampires slain, fight sequences galore, & possibly a little too much melodrama with everyone's personal lives. Even so, this is first-class shadow theater of the mind designed to make the miles roll by -- even if you're stuck in road construction for quite a few of those miles.

Like Season 1, this is available as an Audible Plus free item. The seasons should definitely be listened to in order, & you'll probably be a little confused even with the helpful Season 1 recap provided. Also, I'd be very surprised/disappointed if a Season 3 isn't flapping in the wings -- this had the feel of a middle book.
