Kara's Reviews > The Ancients

I absolutely loved The Ancients. It’s the story of a world ravaged by climate change, where civilization has been set back thousands of years. The interwoven stories of survival and hope kept me hooked from start to finish.

None of the characters were purely likable, but they were all compelling in their own ways, forcing me to stay invested in their struggles.

I loved the messages about sustainability and hope in such a bleak future. My only minor gripe was how neatly everything wrapped up in the end, which felt a little too tidy given the harshness of the story. That said, it didn’t take away from how incredible this book was overall—highly recommend!

Thank you to NetGalley and Viking!
