In this follow-up to No Less Days, Zac Wilson has stuck around in town with David Galloway, after connecting with the fellow longevite under terrible circumstances. While there, he is approached by more people like him, who claim that several more of their kind have been dying. Are they finally aging out, or is something darker happening?
In my review of No Less Days, I mentioned that it would have made a good series, and I was right! Having this book added to the first makes the story much richer, and watching these characters struggle with their odd balance of humanity and immortality becomes an epic battle rather than a skirmish snapshot. I questioned how one's faith in God might grow, or stagnate, over several lifespans that didn't result in a face-to-face meeting - that was delved into more thoroughly in this book, and it added so much to the story. There are still questions hanging out there, and I can only hope that there are more books to come to continue this unusual story of a family knit together by unique circumstances and not necessarily by choice. I'm so interested to see how they find their way back together, and if they can find peace with what seems to be their lot.
I give this book 4 stars. I almost didn't pick it up because its description is so odd for a Christian fiction novel, but I'm so glad that I did! It definitely gives the reader a lot to think about how they handle their small breath of years they get to spend here.

I received a digital copy of this book, via NetGalley, from the publisher, in exchange for my honest review.
