The Intrusion Kindle Edition

by Melissa Riddell (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars (202)
The end of her world is just the beginning.

Nearing high school graduation, Tilly Morgan’s eager to leave her small Texas town. Armed with a plan to start fresh with her older sister in Florida, her dreams are obliterated when an electromagnetic pulse ravages the planet, rendering the world’s electrical grid useless and throwing Tilly's community into chaos.

No technology. No modern conveniences. No power.

Widespread panic tears across the country and roving bands of looters and rioters overpower the weak to take what they want. Max Jacobsen, Callahan High School's bad boy troublemaker, teams up with Tilly in a bid for survival and protection.

There’s more to Max than he shows and Tilly finds herself drawn to his quiet strength and morally ambiguous ways. Their constant companionship creates a strong bond of friendship... and maybe something more.

Braving each incoming threat together, Tilly and Max learn what it means to protect the ones they love. But when black spaceships descend from the sky, an even greater threat looms over mankind—a fate far worse than the loss of electricity.

*This is the prequel to the Savage Worlds Series, which starts with The Descendant by Melissa Riddell.

    This book was sad and broke my heart!. I finished the 1st book and started my 2nd. At least there's no cliff hanger and the words smack me in the face. I like that the author doesn't hold any surprises back.
    I can't stand reviews that tell the ending or give away too much information about the story away.
    I want to read the next book so catch ya later at the end.

    A bittersweet story with the kind of characters you can quickly relate to. Just like real life, the author’s world contains characters I wanted to instantly befriend and protect and some I wanted to throat punch. A trait of a good book is finding myself caring about what happens to the individuals the writer has brought to life and this story definitely did that.

    3.0 out of 5 stars It’s okay (spoilers)
    Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2022
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    An emp changes life for Tilly Morgan overnight. All electronics are done for and life will never be the same. She was hoping to get out of her small town, but those dreams are over. She has to learn to survive this new world with her parents and her not quite friend Max. Throw possible threats from beyond this world into the mix and things get interesting.

    I like the twist with the emp being something from outside known sources. It adds extra tension to the plot and makes you want to get to the bottom of the mystery. What’s really going on? What’s the purpose? That kept me reading to the end, even though it ends on a cliffhanger of sorts. Tilly heads off to Florida to find her sister. Unfortunately, there was more I disliked about the book than liked so I probably won’t be finishing this series.

    My main problem with this book is the main character, Tilly. Her character seems all over the place. She’s an angry teenager ready to fight the world one minute then crying because they killed a rabbit so they wouldn’t starve. She comes across as more of a thirteen year old girl going through puberty than the eighteen year old senior getting to head off to college soon. A few examples that stuck out to me and had me shaking my head:

    - Max convinces her to unknowingly go along with him to steal back his ring from Emory (his ex and her bully) She’s absolutely furious when she finds out and leaves him. He pops up at her house, gives her a smile, and then she giggles and forgives him. Then they high five for some reason. She’s been established out the gate as this tough, angry girl who doesn’t like people messing with her so this whole scene really threw me.
    - Everyone treats her like a child. Her dad wants her to toughen up and survive, but he continues to treat her like a little girl. She can be surprisingly tough at times and she’s not afraid of hard work. I think her parents contribute to her naivety. Even with her anger issues and the bullying at the beginning of the book, they chastise her for lashing out then make joking comments about her as if she’s a silly girl overreacting to everything.
    - My biggest nitpick is what happens when Emory pops back into the picture. Max has been trying to move things along with Tilly for six months now. She’s cautious obviously but she’s not shutting down his small advances either. Except the second Emory shows up, Max runs off and has sex with her. But wait, it gets better, because Tilly forgives him when she realizes “she has no right to be angry with him.” Girl, what? Max does show sincere remorse, I’ll give him that. But Tilly was really hurt by his actions. So her easy pardon felt too generous. Max got forgiven way too easy. But it doesn’t matter in the end anyway considering how the books ends.

    I will say the end had me tearing up. I won’t name names but major character deaths take place. It all happens really fast too. Overall, this book is okay. By the halfway mark, I started skimming it because it was getting predictable. It’s a great way to kill a few hours and it’s free (at the time of this review anyway).

    While this book seems geared more toward late teen readers, as an older reader I found it enjoyable.
    It's an interesting take on the apocalyptic scenario, that keeps your attention from the first few pages.
    A good way to pass a day reading.

    Great story line and the writing is solid but it is in first person so if this bugs you you will not be a fan. I don't like it but the story was worth getting used to it. I'll definitely find the rest of the series for this one. I did note quite a few typos but this happens when books go to digital. They would not have been in the originals.

    I’m still crying crocodile tears for the ending of this stunning story. It has been a real heartbreak. The rest of the story is a strong lead up to an apocalypse with 18 year old Tilly, her family and her best friend Max, and Kat ( his little sister) becoming a larger family in a time of trouble. There’s a lot happening all the way through, even some that’s funny. Truth is I can’t do this book justice. Just know it’s unbeatable!
