Book 7 of 8: Breakers

See all formats and editions

Anson's army has driven Raina from the mainland, but the war is far from over. From the safety of Catalina Island, she launches a guerrilla campaign, meaning to weaken him cut by cut.

She finds herself matched at every step by his grimly determined lieutenant, Lowell. With progress slower than expected, Raina is forced to accept the creation of a war council. But the council's will to fight is weakening by the day. Pressured by her enemies and from within, Raina soon finds her grip on the island slipping.

But the threat of losing her people is nothing compared to the threat Ness and his alien friend Sebastian have discovered across the Pacific.
____

The seventh post-apocalyptic Breakers novel, RELAPSE is the setup to the explosive finale of the series.

This is another fast moving, exciting entry to the Breakers series. Book 7 of 8 so you know there will be plenty of resolution and the beginning of the conclusion to a thoroughly enjoyable series. What started way back when as a post-plague survival story has turned into something much more interesting. I cannot wait to get to the final book because I truly can't guess as to how it will all end. And I like that on top of everything else this series has going for it. Great characters, exciting fast paced story that keeps you interested. Well done.

Best long-game writing ever!

Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2022

Verified Purchase

Let me begin with something that sounds like a brag--and probably is: I hold a doctorate in Western Literature. I have read a lot of great literature, and this series is THE BEST example of long-game writing I have ever experienced. If you start at the beginning, and keep reading even in moments where it seems to be getting off track, you will ultimately be rewarded with the AH-HA moment where it all comes together. It's a long read, but not a difficult one. Though filled with great ideas and philosophies about human nature and the general experience of life, it's written in contemporary language, easy to follow the characters, and an excellent aura of dry humor. Start at the beginning, don't skip a single chapter, and the pay off is so worth it. Enjoy!

As always, the Breakers series just gets better!

Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2014

Verified Purchase

Relapse, the 7th in the Breakers series, is yet another amazing addition to the saga. We see many of our favorite (and most hated) characters return to bring peace and order back to a broken earth, and also meet some new and in some cases, unexpected heroes.

Ed has an uncanny way of telling the stories of the many parties within the saga so that you are never bored, and helps ensure that you feel like you're bouncing between them in near-real time as their paths cross and diverge. He is a true story teller in every sense of the word and demonstrates easily that he's found his true calling.

Relapse in no way disappoints as the second to last installment of the breakers series (unless we get lucky and he brings it out of retirement)! It's hair raising, emotionally charged, action packed and full of twists and turns as we watch the conflicts in the LA basin escalate, meanwhile across the earth, Sebastian, Ness and gang continue to kick swimmer-butt.

It's nearly impossible to pick a "favorite" breakers book since they're all so darned good, and each one becomes my favorite as I turn the last page. Relapse is no different.

If you've been holding out for some reason in the breakers series, just stop now and reward your stubborn perseverance with this series. There's a great chance you'll have found a new favorite (or favorites) book AND maybe even a new favorite author , much like myself.

Relapse Book 7 of the Breakers Series

Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2016

Verified Purchase

I found the original book of this series free and read it. That began my journey with this series. It is a well written series that keeps you excited about turning each page. Somehow the author integrates a ton of people without losing fluidity. Very few books that I have read were as gritty and real life without being hokey.
I love how the author mixes ideas up as he goes along and still keeps things ties together.
I have completed the series and did it rather quickly due to the author's excellent writing style. There really were no dull moments and I could always imagine I was a fly on the wall (or an alien in a sub) seeing how each of the characters responded to new stimuli.
I would not start with this book obviously but if you are already reading the series and continue with this book. If you have not started the series yet then by all means please go to the beginning of the series book one and start there you will not be disappointed.

Stirring the Pot Before the Finale

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2015

Verified Purchase

Typical "can't put it down" fast paced, Robertson book. Looking forward to the final book next, but will miss the many characters, we have come to know so well. True to his style, Robertson keeps your interest peaked by telling three stories in one by every 1/3 chapter devoted to that perspective. They have all come close to intersecting at the end of Book seven, even Walt, humankinds saviour. He wasn't involved in book seven because he was temporarily incapacitated with a broken ankle (neat trick), but sounds like he'll be there for the finale.

Excellent Breakers installment, as are they all!!! Keep up the great work Ed!

This is the leadup to the final book i thinki? It was amazing, richly developed recurrent characters (who can die at any time aka GRRM lol). Edward is a wonderful up and coming author you need to pay attention to! I've been with Ed and the Breakers from the start. He's writes fast paced quality stories that will hook ya and he is not too busy or aloof to take time out and say hello to his fans. In fact he did me a HUGE favor after Breakers dropped. I won't mention the exact details but suffice it to say he reached out to someone who enjoys his work but was not able to read it. A friend to all is how I'd describe Ed. Perhaps a Brandon Sanderson Junior haha. His writing has come a ways through the books but they are always entertaining and great fun to read. I'm looking forward to Ed writing a serious opius. Perhaps he has made enough of Breahers to spend a year on a book? (Knowing Amazon i somehow doubt it). Whatever Ed does i'll be waiting to read it!

Another Great Breakers Story!

Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2015

Verified Purchase

Another great installment of the Breakers series. As the series moves towards it's conclusion, the action and story continue to evolve in new twists and turns. This installment had old favorites Raina, Mia, Tristan, Ness and Sebastian and introduced new characters as well. I won't spoil it by giving away any of the plot, but suffice it to say that Mr. Robertson tells quite a story. I was a little depressed when I finished the book knowing that there was only one more installment and then it will all be over....well, kind of...If you haven't started the Rebel Stars series, I highly recommend you do so. It is set in the same universe as Breakers, but 1,000 years has gone by and humanity has fully recovered from the Panhandler pandemic and Swimmer invasion. Same great story telling. I hope you all give it a go!

This post-apocalyptic world as created by Edward Robertson has drawn me in for weeks and weeks. The first set of 3 was available for free, so jump in and see if it resonates with you. If it does, hang on for a heck of a ride! I bought the second set of three, then Relapse, and intend to buy the next one as well. Plus, I really hope there's a screenplay being written out there, as this great, sweeping, cinematic saga is begging for a mini-series.

A lot if deep characters, great plot, humor, exitement and I love the style if how the different books are aleays revolving around just a few of the people and how they finally bring things together from different angles. Now it is up to book 8. I can only recommend to start at no. 1 and get lost in this world.

A fantastic continuation of a great series. I love all the characters, I love the writing (superbly taut) and I love the fleshing out of the world they now live in. Why this series isn't more popular I don't know. It has everything. Action, characters, writing ability, drama, multiple plotlines - love it, a great series.

Robertson continues to improve. I had commented on some of the earlier works that some good proofreading would help, and the last two books in the series don't disappoint.
