Seven teens are trying to survive in
an unknown territory after their plane crashes.
The place is run by robots and has different landscapes covering miles
of land. The teens call themselves team Killbot
and they are trying to help each other survive while also trying to find the
edge of the territory. When one of their
teammates goes missing, only to return for a while talking like a robot, their distrust for the robots grows.
This is
the second book I have read in this series, and each book is an unfinished
story making it a very dissatisfying read. The front cover says there is going
to be seven books, but the series won’t be finished until January 2020. The action is interesting, but there isn’t a
lot of character development and after reading two books I still don’t feel
like I understand the rules of their world.
The story is like a mix of the TV series Lost and Survivor.
