If you haven't then you really should give her a try- her books really are incredible. I've been lucky enough to have been able to read Hunger, so I was thrilled when I also got the chance to review Rage as well & ended up reading it all in one sitting. Kessler really does have a strong storytelling ability to her & readers will really be able to feel Missy's pain & anguish. While Hunger's weakness was that there wasn't a lot of information about the background of the characters contained within it, Kessler has managed to work out most of that problem in this book. There's more depth & background to the characters, more explanation of what makes their personal issues hit them so hard. However where some readers will get frustrated is in what exactly the Horsemen are responsible for. You know that they're the embodiment of their station & that they can influence how things unfold, but not much information is really given about how it all happens. It all comes out in a rather confusing jumble, which may or may not be on purpose. Whatever the reason, I can't help but wish we had that information. Even in other "incarnation of ____" books (Sandman, the Piers Anthony series, etc) they have some sort of explanation for the hows of the beings. This was pretty much my only gripe about the book, to be honest. I was able to overlook it for the most part because I enjoyed the rest of the book so much. This is still an awesome book & Kessler remains someone I'll be reading in the future. I'm pretty curious to see how the rest of the series plays out, as there's two more Horsemen for the books to focus on. Haven't read Hunger? No worries, you can pretty much read Rage without having read the previous book, but you'd be missing out on a good tale. As it is, it's one of those ebook arcs that I ended up tracking down in paper format because I wanted to continue collecting the series. (Just wish I'd been able to get a paper arc to match my other book!) (ARC provided by NetGalley) Review: Rage: Horsemen of the Apocalypse #2 - My thoughts: This story is powerful, compelling, and terrifying. From the first sentence which is shocking to the end - where I found myself in tears - I couldn't put this one down! This is a tale of sorrow and sadness, suffering, struggle and pain. It is also a story of acceptance and triumph, forgiveness, love, and the power of belief in yourself. Again, as with the first book, I am impressed. The story is well written. The topic is tragic, compelling, and way too real in today's society. As with Hunger, I think that Jackie Morse Kessler has captured a subject that is more common than anyone wants to admit, many people fear, most deny, and all are challenged in dealing with. She has made her story thoughtful, insightful, encouraging, realistic, and respectful to anyone who may come in contact with the issue of self-injury/self-mutilating. She lends an understanding that I would never have achieved without reading this book. I feel that it is a must read for teens and adults alike. I would recommend it to anyone. Be sure to read Hunger (Horsemen of the Apocalypse Book 1) by Jackie Morse Kessler before you read Rage. They are both amazing stand alones, but there are references in Rage that will mean more if you have already read Hunger. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,652,487 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #501 in Teen & Young Adult Fiction on Depression & Mental Health (Books) #528 in Teen & Young Adult Fiction on Boys' & Men's Issues (Books) #699 in Teen & Young Adult Fiction about Self Esteem & Reliance | | Book 2 of 4 | Riders of the Apocalypse | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (94) | | Dimensions | 5.5 x 0.57 x 8.25 inches | | Edition | 34741st | | Grade level | 7 - 9 | | ISBN-10 | 0547445288 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0547445281 | | Item Weight | 8 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 228 pages | | Publication date | January 1, 2011 | | Publisher | HMH Books for Young Readers | | Reading age | 12 years and up | ## Images ![Rage - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91O96MfVjhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seriously in love with this series *by C***O on March 27, 2011* If you've read Kessler's first book Hunger, you know how well she is at packing quite a bit of story in such a small amount of pages.

And some of that rage turns inwards. And we have to find a way to cope with that rage. I identified with the book when I read it in middle school. And it helped me understand my friend who would hurt herself in that anger and overwhelming wave of feeling. Now I read it and I see a model. A victory. And I hope that friend found her own sword to wield and way to heal. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/10981499-rage](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/10981499-rage) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-04-30*
