Surrender the Sun boxset is one of the few post-apocalyptic stories I’ve read/listened to that is based on a natural weather occurrence instead of a war or zombie inducting pandemic. To be honest, while I enjoy the zombie-based series, Surrender the Sun made me think about what could happen should we be faced with a mini-ice age. Along with a plausible story line, A. R. Shaw has created a cast of characters who are not only easy to identify with but have very human flaws and failings which make them even more believable. When I finished listening to the third book, I was thinking how I hoped there would be at least one more book just to follow these characters for a bit longer. Today I saw in A.R. Shaw’s newsletter that the fourth book may be out in August. Kevin Pierce does an excellent job of not just telling the story but bringing every character to life.
