    Summary

    Book I of the Clementine Series.

    Thirteen-year-old Clementine travels with Kenny—her volatile protector whose rage is as dangerous as his loyalty—and baby AJ, in search of Renalia, the rumored settlement Kenny fixated on after Wellington turned them away.

    But when Clementine accidentally kills an innocent man in a darkened cabin, everything changes. The dead man's pager leads her to a hidden camp of outcasts who believe that the outbreak not only changed death, but changed all life that came after it.

    Now Clementine must choose between the lies that keep her family together and the truth that could tear them apart. Because Renalia wants post-born children like AJ. And in her struggle to protect him, Clementine must confront what she's becoming: a girl who kills without hesitation, who's forgotten what childhood felt like, who can stare at death and feel nothing at all.

    A girl who is starting to think like Kenny.

    Summary

    The Phoenix symbolizes renewal, rebirth, and resurrection, emerging from the ashes of its own fiery death to be reborn anew.

    This is what Robert Robertson the Third tried to see himself as: A Phoenix. After losing his identity and job as Mecha-Man, he has a chance to reemerge as Dispatcher of the notorious Z-Team, a group of dangerous criminals given a shot at being heroes.

    And, while everyone else regards the Z-Team as a dumpster fire, a nuclear bomb just waiting to be set off, Robert sees something else—he sees pain, understanding, and above all, an intent to be better. He sees people who had always drawn the short stick, who bet on losing cards, and who were always regarded as less.

    What Robert sees... is a group of Phoenixes.

    And he'll be damned if he won't stick by every one of them, regardless of what anyone else thinks.

    tldr:
    Robert is highly emotionally aware and fiercely protective, refusing to give up on anyone in the Z-team, even when the stakes are high and tension is rising. They're all a bunch of fuckin' idiots, as Chase would say, but they're undoubtedly his idiots, through and through. Blonde Blazer, oddly enough, supports this change of pace.

    Watch how he'll survive with a kid and a former professor/convict behind him. :)

    Warning!: the chapters' length at first are pretty consistent, but later they become shorter than longer.
