All that matters now is revenge, and I know who deserves it.
“I’m going to kill the president,” I say in a voice that scares me when I hear it. “You hear?”
“Sarah…” Kian looks at me helplessly.
“You hear?” My voice rises, a note of hysteria creeping into my words. “Don’t you dare telling me that what I feel is wrong. That this exact anger is what consumed the Old World. Because our New World is no better.”
Sarah and Kian have ended up on Tresco. They have brought Jinn home, but at a price - the president of Dartmoor is hot on their heels, and the only people who can help them live on the island of Lundy in the north, or in the notoriously rebellious community of Exmoor. When they team up with Walt and Leia, the Young Keepers of Lundy, as well as the leader of Exmoor,a makeshift army is put together to put an end to President Jacob's rule once and for all. The islanders and mainlanders will do everything in their power to make the New World into what it was truly supposed to be.
Will Kian be able to honor his uncle's legacy? And will Sarah keep her family safe and find out what happened to Jinn's twin brother? Find out in this final installment in the Island/Dartmoor series!

Having read the whole of the Island Series and the Dartmoor Chronicles book one I was looking forward to revisiting the characters and places in the series' as well as having some of my questions answered.The cover shows the vastness of the sea and features what I would call an old fashioned ship prominently on the cover. The cover fits well with both the other Dartmoor Chronicle's title, Beyond the Fence and the covers for The Island Series.
President Jacob wants his Soldiers of Gideon to take fit and healthy people away from Tresco and perform experimental tests on them in a bid to find a cure for the disease his daughter has. It is time for the different settlements on the island to band together and make a stand.
So at the very end of Beyond The Fence, we discovered along with Sarah, Kian and Jinn that they had been fooled and followed by President Jacob's Soldiers of Gideon.
Sarah even ponders if the fact she met Jinn was engineered by the President too, as well as a boat being at the harbour to aid their escape.
Rob the keeper of Tresco orders that the people should leave the town and initially hide in some caves they have stocked with food, water and blankets for such an occasion as this invasion. How long can they successfully hide? What happens when the Soldiers of Gideon find the caves and those hidden in them? Or what will happen when the supplies in the cave run out?
It's quite ironic that the boys from the manor are going to be the first line of the Islands defence's when they were once the bullies and bad guys of the Island. It's decided that Sarah and Kian will go back to Lundy and ask for help to stop President Jacob kidnapping the Tresco Islanders and taking them against their will to be tested, and possibly meet the same fate of Jinn, ending up haing the disease itself and dying.
There were quite a few emotional scenes in the book, when Jinn is reunited with Gordon his father, there is elation at them finding each other again but tinged with sadness as Jinn's brother, also Gordon's son, Winda is still missing.
I also thought the talk that Kian and Jinn have before Kian and Sarah have to on a mission was quite emotional. Jinn knows he will most probably be dead before Sarah returns and he secretly and quietly asks Kian to look after Sarah, and though Jinn doesn't say the exact words he is giving Kian permission to go ahead and court Sarah in the future, though at the time, Kian takes the remark as look after her on the mission and help her cope when she comes home and I may have already passed on.
Whilst Kian and Sarah make their way to the harbour to wait for Captain Tom so they can go to Lundy for help, they have to take temporary cover in a part ruined building. Kian finds some cd roms, which later in the book he is prepared to barter for help to keep the Islanders safe, but will old computer items, storage devices be enough to barter help to fight off the invading army? Will King Locryn want these computer items enough to offer and follow through with the help the Islanders need? Even if King Locryn does agree to help will there be anyone left on the island to help defend their home or even anyone left alive on the island?
This book is told from the points of view of the central characters of Kian and Sarah. They are the main characters involved in gaining the help of powerful allies to take on President Jacob about his actions in testing people against their will, like Jinn.
My first thoughts upon finishing this book were, well that ties up all the loose ends from book one. Then I thought a little more and began thinking of things I still had questions about, like would Kian and Sarah ever get together? There's the surprise Sarah had whilst on the boat with Kian and Captain Tom to be taken into account too. I'd like to know more about that and how it affects both Sarah and Kian. Then there's still a little more that could be revealed about Gordon, Jinn's father.. . . .So I guess what I am saying is I would love maybe a novella set a bit further into the future, to kind of catch up with my favourite characters, Kian, Sarah, Walt, Leia, Saul, Cal and Mia are among the first that spring to mind.
Would I recommend this series? Of course yes! I'd recommend reading both The Island Series, and the Dartmoor Chronicles Series too. I've read quite a lot of books by this author, I love her writing style and pace.

Across The Sea The Dartmoor Chronicles Book 2 eBook Jen Minkman Reviews
Sarah, Jinn and Kian have finally reached the island; and Jinn is happily reunited with his father. But their happiness is short lived when they learn that they were set up and was followed by the president. They take all the people and go hide out in caves but with their food and supplies running low someone has to make a run for it. So Sarah and Kian are the chosen ones and find another way out of the caves to go find help on another island.
Sarah is just a seventeen year old girl who lost her father at the young age of twelve and now she has to leave her boyfriend behind so she can hopefully save him again and his family from the president, hopefully she makes it back before it is too late. When Sarah makes the decision to leave the cave she knows she may never see Jinn again but there is a good chance that she may not see her Mom and little brother Tim again either if she can’t stop the president in time.
Can Sarah and Kian make it to the other islands and convince the people there to help them save Jinn and his people along with the people on the mainland too? Can Sarah stop the president? Can she save her family, Jinn and everyone else too? Will they finally get to live the life they deserve? Will they ever be free? Will they always be slaves to the president?
I have truly loved reading The Dartmoor Chronicles and following along with Sarah, Kian, Jinn and everyone else on their adventures. I love the world that the author has created for The Dartmoor Chronicles. Jen Minkman is just an awesome writer and I love all of her stories and I can’t wait to read more of them. I love the whole concept and meaning behind The Island Trilogy and The Dartmoor Chronicles and would love to read more of this nature. Where does Sarah and Kian go from here? Where will their lives lead them next?
If you have not read the Island Trilogy or The Dartmoor Chronicles then let me suggest that you do. They are both just so amazing in their own way.
Picks up where the last book left off with a few surprises. The story wraps up nicely, but with some loss and sadness. Things are not perfect, but there is change and at least they were able to accomplish what they ultimately set out to do. I like that at the end, Sarah and Kian remain true to themselves even as they grow.
I had not read the first series, but do intend to as I would like to get to know some of the characters that were mentioned in this one.
Kept me wanting to read
These two books finished off the island series very nicely. Enjoyed the characters and the way each group of people had passed down a different version of the past. Nice storyline
Taking over where Beyond the Fence left off, we see a return to Tresco as Sarah and Kian and the remaining residents are forced into hiding .
It had a slow start, but when it picked up, it really picked up. This was a great end to the whole series.
