Sunrise by Mike Mullin, 546 pages
This is the last book in the Ashfall series. Readers should feel pretty satisfied that all
loose ends are pretty much tied up.
Because the mayor of Warren is unwilling to admit that the town’s
defenses are woefully inadequate, Alex and Darla decide to form their own
community with the help of the people in their own home, the decide to move near
the wind turbines in order to have a more efficient heating system, especially
for the greenhouses that are necessary to food production. However, as they build, they also start to
expand. People have begun to hear about
their community and they are willing to take in anyone who is willing to
work. Alex begins to understand that
leading large groups of people is more difficult than he could have ever
anticipated and he still worries that one of the many groups of flensers or
people from Stockton may try to attack.
This is an excellent end of the world survival story that will probably
appeal especially to teen boys.
