This was an incredible journey. Aliens, humans,, and many other strange forms of life.. From book 1 the most memorable phrase “who says the end of the world can’t be fun.” It proved to be much more than that!!! Mariella and Tu’ver were my favorite couple. They had less confrontation with each other and seemed most comfortable to be around. Some of the human females made me furious with their hard headedness and need to be right and be the decision maker!!! All in all. this was a great adventure that showed how people along with Aliens and the puppet master learned to adapt to the changes in the world and people/creatures left. They overcame everyday obstacles and many new obstacles to be able to survive and eventually prosper. This was inspirational and impactful. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. The narrator did an excellent job bringing the characters and story to life. I loved all his many voices and sound effects. Kudos.
