In this third book of the series, we follow the Ryman family’s journey to a friend’s house in a rural area. They learn that while they were not safe at their home, the roads aren’t much safer. The book drew me in quickly and I felt I was there with them throughout the continual challenges the family faced. The author has done such an excellent job building the characters, that by this point, I feel like I know who they are. This is a great series that is not only entertaining, but also warns of potential issues of CMEs and societal collapse. Kevin Pierce adds his own brand of magic with his voice and brings the story to life.
