This book is another segment nearing the end of a Five Star series. I've reluctantly only given it four stars because of it's "Cliff Hanger" ending. I may be too harsh of a critic but, I believe all books should be able to stand-on-their-own, even books with a cliff-hanger ending. This book needs the next segment; without it, this would be a frustrating experience.
Also, if you really want to understand both the characters and much of their dialogue, you need to be familiar with the earlier books in this series. I thoroughly enjoy series style stories, if they're good. Once I get to know the main characters, their environment, and plot lines, I hate to see it end. It often feels like a good friend and neighbor is moving away.
This is very well written with interesting well developed characters, plenty of action and many exciting experiences.
I've often wondered what would happen following a near Extinction Level Event. The behavior of the peoples portrayed in this series is, sadly, pretty much how I fear they will conduct themselves. There are often individuals who instinctively seem to understand the benefits of sharing and working together but, the fears of the masses, and their self-serving actions, always seem to overwhelm community interests.
I can promise you this, if you start with this (fourth , I think) book in this Dystopian Society Series, you will get the earlier books and anxiously await the next as we approach the end of this outstanding series.
