Sheltered Vol. 1

Children are chaotic & unpredictable in times of strife.  Sheltered a pre-apocalyptic story that is in the vein of Lord of the Flies.  Imagine if you can that the Governor from The Walking Dead is a teenager & that he is one of your best friends.  Then imagine what would happen if all of your friends & their families got together to build a community that would live off grid in case disaster struck.  Now imagine what your best friend would do in that situation.  Lucas is not the blonde haired blue eyed spoiled boy king that Joffrey was but he is dang close.  This story is allegorical in a way by showcasing what happens if children were in charge with guns.  Like the movie I Declare War which takes a childhood game & turns it into a harsh reality.  In fact part of me hopes that he is vindicated in is belief that the volcano will blow up but that it leads to his death as well because just by his actions alone he deserves to die.  Victoria is shaping up to be a bad-ass & I hope that continues.  This first volume was all set up but it is shaping up nicely I look forward to picking up the next title in this series.
