The Ravaged

Product Information

Hunter, along with Ruby, takes a couple of his old biker buddies --- appropriately named Itch and Nugget --- for a cross country rode trip from North Carolina to California. It in Cali where he is to claim what his father left behind for him in his will. More importantly is what Hunter will experience on said road trip as he prepares for his role as executor of his father’s estate and must go through many towns along the way as well as plenty of trips down memory lane which, for me, were the best parts of THE RAVAGED.

Reedus reprised his role as Daryl Dixon in the 2013 video game The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct, which is based on the television series. [20] He was set to star in Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro's reboot horror game Silent Hills, but Kojima left Konami and the game was canceled in 2015. [21] [22] [23] Reedus starred in Kojima's video game Death Stranding. [24] Personal life [ edit ] I thought each of the three MCs were strong characters and had interesting stories, but just not a lot happened. The whole time I was reading I was just waiting to see where it would go, what would happen to these people. And while I will say I was never bored, it just never really went anywhere and I was confused about the whole experience! Now, my issue with this book is that the writing felt very disjointed and choppy, and really unbearably repetitive. For example, throughout his journey Hunter stops at multiple locations (usually bars) and has chats with random strangers. He tells everyone the same exact story: I had a job, this guys was abusive to the dog, I punched him, took the dog and took off. Every. Single. Time. Without fail. Hunter does the same thing with the dreams he recounts. First, we would read about the dream he is having, then he would wake up and recount that dream word for word to the random person currently by his side. All and all this is a solid debut novel. It’s written in a gritty and engaging style. All three characters have stories that have ups and downs and left me wanting to know more about them. This is actually where it lose some points for me as the ending left me needing more, and i do not believe this is intended to be the start of a series, at least not that i’ve seen. That may be part of the point though because life can leave us searching for more.

Norman Reedus, you're an incredible actor, an amazing artist, and such an engaging person. And I'm sorry, I am so sorry that I absolutely hated this book. If I weren't so die-hard against not DNF'ing a book, I would have put it down weeks ago. Reedus reprised his role of Daryl as the lead of a spin-off series centered on his character, following the conclusion of the 11th and final season of The Walking Dead. Angela Kang is the showrunner for the series, which debuted in September 2023. [16] Modeling, music videos, and art [ edit ] Saunders, Jeraldine (January 6, 2017).

The few antagonistic characters presented share the action of twisting certain views to fit their agenda, always preaching but never doing. However, they also present arguments that further distort the gray areas surrounding our characters, while one of them actually acted as the tipping point for a character's final, happy decision. I absolutely loved the fact that this was narrated by Norman Reedus, and honestly could listen to his voice in my ear all day long. As for the book itself? That was a different story. Reedus has modeled for Prada, Alessandro Dell'Acqua, Durban, Levi's, Lexus, and Morgenthal Fredrics. In 2015, Reedus posed for a Cruelty Free International advertisement in support of ending cosmetic tests on animals. [17] This book was awful. But, before I get to the bad, let me tell you about the good - because, for the worst books on earth, there are least some redeeming qualities. Number one: this book is absolutely gorgeous. Zena Kanes designed a beautiful cover illustration, and the actual binding of the hardcover is stunning. Number two: Norman Reedus is a pretty decent writer. If we're just talking about voice and structure, sure, this book was fine. I could practically hear Reedus's voice as I read this, and no one else but him could ever do the audiobook version.
