The plot includes Connor’s path as he leads the AWOLs in their hiding place in an airplane graveyard, and Lev, the former tithe, as he tries to go about life being well known as “the clapper who didn’t clap.” Risa is now wheelchair-bound, and her story takes a turn, even as she hopes to have a relationship with Connor. In this book, we still follow several narrators, including some new characters, one who is quite literally “new” - and that is a story thread that is definitely thought-provoking. In UnWholly, he manages to keep up the action and intensity of the story, add in new elements of background, and then continue to keep readers thinking about a variety of ethical and moral issues. Neal Shusterman crafted a fascinating story in Unwind, and he said he “never dreamed it would turn into a trilogy,” but he “couldn’t escape the strange world it encompasses.” I didn’t expect to go back to that world, but I couldn’t resist once I heard there would be sequels.
