Reviewed by Alysha Allen for Readers' Favorite

The New World Order, composed of a band of elitists, had caused the destruction of civilization and cities all around the globe in the year 2024. These same elitists and its infamously notorious leader have killed Luke’s parents in cold blood. And now they have left the only person who matters to him. Luke will do just about anything to rescue his Kara and to prevent the cruelties that were inflicted upon his mother and father from happening to her. However, things can never be that easy when you are up against a regenerating army of soldiers who only continue to re-clone themselves after seemingly getting killed. It is only with the help of his comrade SEALS and a replete artillery and weapons force that Luke hopes to bring down the reigning elitists and their plans to transform the world into their own disturbing utopia.

Among massive robots turning into cars chasing after you and the most glorious and complete armament of weapons beholden to man making an appearance in Aaron Powell’s "Doomsday Diaries II: New World Order", we have an electrifying spirited narrative to support it all. The sex scenes are particularly worth noting in themselves for their uninhibited steamy voluptuousness as Luke experiences not only the tribulations and augmented responsibilities that come with manhood but also the distinct pleasures it has to offer. Besides all of the aggressive masculinity and macho camaraderie between Luke and his SEAL friends, there is an underlying transcendence leading and contributing to Luke's maturation. This is of growing into who we are meant to be, fulfilling the legacy left to us by our parents and continuing to do what is right when it can be so easy to fall into the doomed trap of insidious warfare. Yet most prominently there is the importance of sacrifice that Luke must now contend with and the implications it involves when he finds himself falling in love. For those of you who enjoy surprise endings, I would encourage reading all the way through, but don’t expect your burning questions or curiosities to be quenched by the bold turn of events. You’ll have to thank Mr. Powell for that and for keeping us on our toes yet again until another installment to this highly intriguing series should be written.
