Synopsis:
The adults are all dead. Society has collapsed.
As Mother Nature pursues her latest cull, the children of Heron Village are
hanging on by a thread.
Traumatised by the reign of David, Gus, Chess
and Charlotte enlist the help of a bigger and better organised group from
London – a group who want to rebuild the world the way it was before.
When David is dethroned, it seems fresh hope
arrives with the spring – yet they have not found his body. Is he still out
there?
Reuben remains suspicious of the London groups
intentions and is becoming more animal in nature. Is his the only way forward?
And as spring breaks and the snow thaws, a brand new world lies on the horizon…
Review:
Fourth and final instalment in the series and what an ending. I just
want more – I have all these questions in my head that I need answer to.
The world the author built in this series is one of fear, hope, cruelly and
friendships, world full of two sides of a coin. Survival is of the utmost
importance, but it needs to be a survival of the future. Some believe Mother
Nature has had enough and has finally taken back what’s hers, giving humanity
the biggest warning of their generation, killing almost every adult human and
passing the world to younger generations in hope they built a new world that lives
in harmony with nature.
The last book takes off where we finished, with Reuben at the edge of
death, and the Heron kids fighting against David, the only adult alive. But
that seems to be the easy part. Next comes the group from London, trying to
restore the old world of justice, politics, money and mass farming. And Reuben
is the only one who can try and convince them this is not the right path to
take.
I absolutely swallowed up this book and thoroughly enjoyed the whole
series. It’s one big warning to us all.
Thank you to TBConFB and the author for access to this book.
