Publisher's summary

The Yellowstone super-volcano nearly wiped out the human race. Now, almost a year after the eruption, the survivors seem determined to finish the job. Communities wage war on each other, gangs of cannibals roam the countryside, and what little government survived the eruption has collapsed completely. The ham radio has gone silent. Sickness, cold, and starvation are the survivors' constant companions.

When it becomes apparent that their home is no longer safe and adults are not facing the stark realities, Alex and Darla must create a community that can survive the ongoing disaster, an almost impossible task requiring even more guts and more smarts than ever - and unthinkable sacrifice. If they fail . . . they, their loved ones, and the few remaining survivors will perish.

This epic finale has the heart of Ashfall, the action of Ashen Winter, and a depth all its own, examining questions of responsibility and bravery, civilization and society, illuminated by the story of an unshakable love that transcends a post-apocalyptic world and even life itself.

I'm conflicted

I'm conflicted because I like Mike Mullins writing, for the most part, but CAN'T STAND HIS NARRATION. If I heard him pronounce rations as rayshins one more time I was going to scream, If I ever want to experience this story again, it damn sure won't be through audible, unless they re-record it with a better narrator.

A Perfect Ending

Each and every book of this series felt like the best but the third? It truly shined. Especially when read by the author. Amazing story. Amazing characters. Only bad part of this novel was that it ends!

bumbled end

Unfortunately of the three of these books the end is always difficult. I felt that the story became slightly strange with characters motivations changing up and lots of the major pillars in the background just collapsing and disappearing away. There are dramatic shifts in how things are which are either abrupt or not well put together.

Sunrise

This would have been much better with a better Narrator. The story was good.

Great culmination of the series

The best book yet and a great culmination of the series! The narration still isn’t great, but if you speed it up it’s better. But the character development throughout the series has been great, and the plot and story as well!

good if you can get passed the narration.

The narration is hard to listen to, if you can tolerate it, you'll probably enjoy the story. The ending is satisfying.

awsome performance

well written and well narrated, this series has been a rollercoaster that wasnt predictable on its next curve. a harrowing look at what what real people would do in such events, the characters are lovable, hateable, and believeable. thanks Mike Mullen. i enjoyed the ride

bad narration again,

plus important details are forgotten. like, Alex loses a hand but then later his "palmS were sweating" or he "grabbed him by the back of his neck with his left hand" (which is actually a sharpened hook which would have cut the guy's neck)

Better with Age

Generally books one and perhaps book two are best, this series just gets better and better, with book 3 not only being worth the wait but keeps the journey exciting.
