Reviews"In this chilling debut, Mullin seamlessly weaves meticulous details about science, geography, agriculture, and slaughter into his prose, creating a fully immersive and internally consistent world scarily close to reality." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review, In this sequel to Ashfall, Mullin has outdone himself with nonstop action and injury. Just as soon as you think Alex has it all figured out, the other shoe drops and more problems arise."— VOYA "Teens who enjoyed Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games (Scholastic, 2008) and Michael Grant's Gone (HarperTeen, 2008) will find Mullin's story equally engaging."— School Library Journal As fast, furious, action-packed, and, yes, gruesome, as Ashfall (2011), this sprawling sequel follows the continuation of 16-year-old Alex's journey with tough, gorgeous Darla through the ash and snow of a postvolcanic, dystopian Midwestern world."— Booklist The cliffhanger ending leaves readers craving the next installment—and dreading what it may bring. A violent, desperate adventure in a chaotic, post-disaster world."— Kirkus Reviews, "In this sequel to Ashfall, Mullin has outdone himself with nonstop action and injury.
