Waiting on Wednesday #118

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

SUNRISE (Ashfall #3) BY MIKE MULLIN

Goodreads Description:

The Yellowstone supervolcano 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.


Hardcover, 466 pages
Expected publication: April 15th 2014 by Tanglewood Press

It's been a long time since I read book one and two. Well, it feels like forever ago. So I think I need to re-read them both before I read this third and final book :) I'm pretty excited for it, as I did enjoy the first two books and I'm just dying a bit to know how it all ends. Excited to read more of Alex and Darla :)
What are you waiting for?

  1. This series is part of my series challenge for this year! I need to read book 1 & 2 before this one comes out, I'm hoping I'll enjoy them and will avoid long waits with cliffhangers!
