A great series. Sam J. Fires has written a great series with great characters who have taken an epic journey through a post apocalyptic landscape into the besieged town of Meadowview where it all comes together. Sam has wrapped up the series with a fine ending.

I only persevered to book three. A shame, as the story had potential. I found this to be very naively and not well written. I have read other post apocalyptic stories that were so much better. A lot of inconsistencies and unlikely that such a nice hero managed to marry some very heartless women.

This is an awesome book. I love this genre. The characters felt like family who was that type of book and they were successful and scared all those things, but they made it out. I love that kind of story.

Great read
With so few characters at the beginning, I wasn't sure this was for me. Well, I was wrong. What an amazing, strong person, Holly. turned out to be.
It's a wonderful read and an amazing finale'

Very mediocre, especially the last 1/3 where character actions don't match personalities and the plot races ti a hurried conclusion. Would be better as a low budget TV series.
