I don’t know if she was supposed to start out 100% unemotional-because she wasn’t-but she did start out with mostly no emotions. Wren has a really interesting progression throughout the book.
I could clearly picture the humans’ fear of Reboots, and the state of the slums vs.
However, I think Amy Tintera did a great job building up the current state of the world. We didn’t get the clearest picture of how things came to be (where the virus came from, exactly what happened when Reboots started showing up, how the HARC came into power, etc.). The world building was about half good and half ‘meh’. I’m not usually a big fan of zombie books… But I’m pleased to say that I thoroughly enjoyed Reboot, zombies and all! The zombie aspect wasn’t my absolute favourite part of the book, but it was subtle enough and different enough to maintain my interest.
Then reviews started trickling in, talking about how it was a new take on zombies, and then I got nervous. I was a bit nervous about Reboot at first. The perfect soldier is done taking orders. But she has also never felt as alive as she does around Callum. Wren has never disobeyed before and knows if she does, she'll be eliminated, too. When Callum refuses to follow an order, Wren is given one last chance to get him in line-or she'll have to eliminate him. Yet there's something about him she can't ignore. His reflexes are too slow, he's always asking questions, and his ever-present smile is freaking her out. As a 22, Callum Reyes is practically human. Wren's favorite part of the job is training new Reboots, but her latest newbie is the worst she's ever seen. Now seventeen years old, she serves as a soldier for HARC (Human Advancement and Repopulation Corporation). Wren 178 is the deadliest Reboot in the Republic of Texas. The longer Reboots are dead, the less human they are when they return. After 178 minutes she came back as a Reboot: stronger, faster, able to heal, and less emotional. Five years ago, Wren Connolly was shot three times in the chest.
