Through her own words I saw her as a very timid. When she arrives, Kate goes on a walk and writes in journal the wonder she experiences of the natural world. How the reader gets to know her through her own words. What I enjoyed the most about this novel was the character development of Kate Holland. Like any good disaster story, I was left wondering if things had been handled differently, would the ending have changed? Everything meshes together to tell the story and leave the reader to ponder the ultimate outcome. Quotes from scientific journals, myths, zoological texts and other sources lend credibility and interest to the story. These interviews add a sense of urgency to the story and validate the experiences Kate writes about in her journal. Interviews from Frank McCray, the journal writer’s brother, and Senior Ranger Josephine Schell, who was first on the scene. Also included are interviews of the community founder, Tony Durant taken from NPR. Written primary through the journal of Kate Holland found at what was left of the eco-community, Greenloop when rescuers finally were able to reach it. Much like Max Brooks other novel World War Z.ĭevolution starts with an introduction by the author explaining how he came to write the story of the firsthand account of the Rainier Sasquatch Massacre. So much of this book is written as if it just happened. I want to put in a reminder that this is a book of fiction. I have wanted to write a review of the book but, needed time to process the story. I was very excited to receive my copy of the book last August and finished reading shortly after I received it. Devolution by Max Brooks is one of those stories. I think about them long after I have finished reading them.
