Book Review: FreeFall (Pendulum Trilogy #2) by Adam Hamdy

Hi Umhlobo wam,

 

After loving Pendulum, I dived right into reading Adam Hamdy second book in the series Freefall. 

 

Eight months have passed since the horror of Pendulum, John Wallace is escaping reality in Afghanistan.

He is photographing real life in a war zone, as some sort of penance. John can not escape his past, as assassination attempt makes Wallace realise that he has once again been targeted for death. After his near death experience 8 months ago John is more prepared, as he tracks down the assassin and find out his connection to Pendulum. 

The connection it was FBI agent Christine Ash needed to provide that Pendulum was not working on his own. Some powerful people would like to be kept this hidden. This puts them in more danger than ever before. 

Now Christine, John and Patrick Bailey have to unravel a web that would destroy Modern world like never before. 

 

FreeFall Is a breath-taking thriller. 

John, Christine and Patrick have they own part in the story. Each individual storyline are gripping, all of them are add more drama, action and drama to the story as a whole. 

One of the elements of Freefall is how all three of them are coping with their trauma at the hands of Pendulum. It shows that not everyone will deal with trauma in the same way. Although the trauma doesn’t stop them doing the right thing, even if it places their life at danger. 

FreeFall impact is much large than Pendulum making the stakes high, and kept me hooked to the book. Now slightly creeped out of the idea of bumping into some in a Pendulum mask.  Also the technology that the bad guys have access to is very scary. I don’t have anything to hide on my hard drive but it did I would be worried. Like finding a big magnet and wipe the hard drive worried. 

Adam Hamdy made me cry again, I was not expecting it and I didn’t appreciate the emotional bomb he left in the pages. 

I did guess the bad guys end game before the reveal, but that didn’t spoil the book for me at all. 

 

My rating for FreeFall is 5 out of 5.
