I don’t censor though so if a fourth grader wants to read it. Is Ashen Winter even better than Ashfall? She’s so used to doing it now, that it seems she can’t stop.
Sep 19, Mike rated it it was amazing Shelves: I think they are going to get ahead and nope. It is a well known fact that the second book in a trilogy tends to be the weakest book of the series.
Ashen Winter
Jan 10, Faye, la Patata marked it as did-not-finish Shelves: Mullin really thought through the details of how such a catastrophic event would transpire. Jan 04, karen rated it it was amazing Shelves: No Dawn without Darkness. First, I’d like to apologise for cussing out Mr. Nobody understood that better than Hitchcock. Does this make us less human? Anyway, was he right? View all 8 comments. This installment in the series is just as action-packed as the first.
The cliff hanger endings of every chapter got annoying and some how felt cheap. Alex and Darla encounter more than just minor setbacks and dangers on their quest. Naturally, I assume the little bastard is sniffing around for baked goods, ’cause not only am I kind and caring, but I can rock some chocolate chip cookies.
Feb 03, Stephanie rated it liked it Shelves: He gains allies, information and supplies as well as lessons in future dangers by observing other towns and meeting new people.
And after reading this, I will never underestimate an injured girl with a screwdriver. Alex and Darla are wonderfully inspiring characters. The author holds nothing back in describing humanity at its potential worst. To ask other readers questions about Ashen Winterplease sign up. I expected to be disappointed.
I like that this one held up the uglier side of both people and humanity at it’s worse, but it also left Alex with hope – that they could make something better. Without giving away too much, Darla and Alex become separated; so on top of all the physical conflict, Alex is torn—continue the search for his parents or rescue the girl he loves.
The review must be at least 50 characters long. I don’t want to make reading a chore, so I deemed it was best for my, ahem, well-being to drop this. Ultimately, mother nature does as she pleases. Okay, I can see how a super-volcanic explosion could cause this scenario but I’m having a adhen time believing that society would degenerate as quickly as it seems to in this second wintr. Alex is very serious by nature and, truth be told, he had very little to laugh about in Ashen Winter which made his occasional humorous remarks all the more entertaining.
Alex plans to leave the relative safety of the farm to look for his parents.
