Contains GRAPHIC torture and positively represents violence in a very disturbing way. *by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2017* The first book is fine, though like many readers I really disliked the "tone-setting" misspellings the author uses. I get that his intent is to show that Todd is un-educated, but it's very clumsy and detracts from the actual reading experience.Good parts: the concept of the series is actually very intriguing. Generation ships were sent to settle a new planet, but on this planet all animals can talk (not like humans, but things like dogs can audibly yell SQUIRREL instead of just barking) and men lose the ability to keep their thoughts private, uncontrollably broadcasting their thoughts to everyone around in what is called Noise. Add in an intelligent native population that no one realized was there, and you have the makings of a good book.Unfortunately, the author can't carry through on the concepts. **Spoilers** The first book focuses on a young boy named Todd and his journey to find somewhere safe in this strange world, along with his friend Viola who recently arrived to the planet. This book was fine, the writing is not outstanding but I enjoyed the journey. However, once you get into the second and especially third book, it is just awful. The main character Todd, who Ness makes a big deal out of being "innocent" and "unable to lie or kill", actively participates in enslaving, torturing, and killing the native population. He allies himself with the psychotically evil Mayor of the area and several times chooses to save this man's life rather than try to end the horrific abuse he perpetuates. Todd, Viola, and another boy quickly develop a love triangle of sorts, which for Todd and Viola mainly consists of committing horrific acts to "save" each other or because they cannot bear to see the other one hurt. I could understand this being done once or twice, but it happens five or six times and each time they make things tremendously worse for everyone. At one point, Viola LAUNCHES MISSILES into a crowd of natives and settlers because Todd is in danger, literally starting a war. And the author represents this all as being understandable errors and the two young people as being incredibly moral and upright individuals.I just cannot get behind the themes of this series at all. I won't be allowing my teen to read this and I felt gross after reading it myself, There are many, many scenes of graphic torture in this book, suicide bombers, torture via mind control, and worse. Do yourself a favor and find a different series. ### ⭐⭐ Not so great, just doesn't get there. *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2021* I ordered this book of course because of the trailer of the movie. I love to read the books before the movies. But this one kinda like "Annihilation", just isn't a good read. The story wanders a bit and it's all travel and threat with little story development. It's nice in how it tells the story in the protagonist voice, and that is done well. But the overall story just is a chase with no charter development. I really wanted to like it but stopped mid 2nd book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 😯 wow 😯 *by L***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2021* This trilogy shook me to my core. I haven’t felt this much pain in such a long time. These books took my peace on more days then I would like to admit. That being said, I am so happy I found this series when I did because I could appreciate it. I think as a teen there are pieces about life and the meaning of it that I would never understand years ago. I feel like in the middle of our world going through it’s first pandemic in decades made me have understanding. Something I don’t think I would have had before.This trilogy all I wanted was the cure and people to lose their noise. But once Todd’s noise was gone I couldn’t wait for it to come back. The noise was one of my favorite things about this trilogy especially the horses 🐎 and Manchee. I still miss Todd’s dog from book 1. I honestly feel like his dog needed to have a memorial service. Manchee was the homie to the fullest and I love that he got an encore in book 3. My heart is so full and anxious especially since book 3 was 80% battle. It was intense bloody and brutal but it was necessary to get where we needed to be.Oh and F F F F Mistress Coyle I hated her since they met. 🤬🤬🤬🤬Also the mayor is worse than "he who shall not be named 👿” 🐍 he was such a savage through and through and his powers were ridiculous. There is so much I have to say but because I was up all night I need a mental break.One day soon I will come in and do this correctly but right now I feel like I’m going to 🤯 explode. This was freaking awesome 👏🏽.Thank you to Candy 🍭 for making me stick with this one it was worth it. --- ## 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.ni/products/131602618-chaos-walking-the-complete-trilogy](https://www.desertcart.ni/products/131602618-chaos-walking-the-complete-trilogy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Nicaragua* *Store origin: NI* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
