Do you know how special this is for apocalyptic fiction? I was really hoping that in the end, I would like this novel better. She and the others in the story are ver I LOVED Panther in the Hive. It's clear that Cole had a strong vision of the world she wanted her characters to inhabit, but the actual story moves in fits and starts. Loved MC Tasha.
With only her precious Prada backpack and a sturdy kitchen knife, she embarks on an epic journey through the wasteland Chicago has become, forming alliances and discovering that although the world may be in pieces, she might still become whole. Olivia also didn't shy away from injustices that are prevalent today and the insecurities that they bring up.
The story follows TaIn a world where a single corporation owns all healthcare, only those who can pay the equivalent of a trip to the moon or who work for the government are able to access even basic care. However, I very much dislike the all-too common tales where our hero is military and therefore apparently preternaturally prepared for when the SHTF, or where most of the plot is about men forming militaristic groups of "goodies" and "baddies" (the badness of the baddies inevitably immediately indicated by collecting and raping women), ESPECIALLY when the flavor of disaster is militaristic inI don't know what it says about me that my favorite genre is the post-apocalyptic tale, but there it is. Not to mention interesting characters and storyline details that just made it so much more better.
They have names, they have stories, they have dynamic identities. Panther in the Hive is at once an unforgettable coming-of-age story and a captivating vision of an unsettling future.

Hooked by the fresh voice, excellent pacing, attention to detail. I mean, I got into my iPhone with just my fingerprint in 2014. I wish Tasha well on her adventures, but I probably won't be following along on the rest of them.
She imagines herself an anaconda of a woman, her jaw unhinged, swallowing her lover like a reptilian black widow.”“We were raised in a world that convinced us to trick ourselves into believing that the more things we owned, the safer we would be, the happier we would be. We have nothing.” Well, issue of any weight, that is.
So that's disappointing. Plenty of action. Tasha is a 21-year old Black woman living in Chicago.
My favorite part was when she found herself in the zoo and was forced to make a decision as to if she would set the animals free...Once it got going (for me after the zoo part) it was an amazing page turner with an awesome conclusion.
Please try again. My favorite part was when she found herself in the zoo and was forced to make a decision as to if she would set the animals free...I really enjoyed this book.
This one is better because the protagonist is a young black woman so stepping into her experience is really exciting as most protagonist is popular science fiction is dominated by white people.
What Olivia Cole has done with Tasha is given is the most human of heroines, one who will stab an enemy in a neck and still wonder if the hot boy next to her thinks she is in need of deodorant. When I finished it last night, I was a little bit disappointed in the ending. In this story set in in a futuristic, but not so distant, society, California has seceded from the US, walking sidewalks replace the concrete ones, and people pretty much live in mega malls. The story follows Tasha, a 21 year old fashionista struggling to find her place after the death of her parents, through a realistic future Chicago as she struggles to survive.I was pulled in really quickly by a compelling first half of the book, but somewhere around the middle, Tasha's inner monologue began to annoy me, especially her constant dropping of pop-culture references that were "classics". I’m so glad I stumbled across it while reading a Huffington Post article. Tasha Lockett, orphan, oddball, and former fashion addict, is alone in a Chicago overrun with citizens-turned-weapons, the result of the cybertronic disaster that brought the country to its knees four days ago. I was happy to find out she is an author, and I offered support by purchasing one of her books.I don't know what it says about me that my favorite genre is the post-apocalyptic tale, but there it is. There's also some pretty weak writing, and at least one continuity error that made me groan audibly.
