Fourth and final instalment in the series and what an ending. I just want more – I have all these questions in my head that I need answer to. 
The world the author built in this series is one of fear, hope, cruelly and friendships, world full of two sides of a coin. Survival is of the utmost importance, but it needs to be a survival of the future. Some believe Mother Nature has had enough and has finally taken back what’s hers, giving humanity the biggest warning of their generation, killing almost every adult human and passing the world to younger generations in hope they built a new world that lives in harmony with nature. 
The last book takes off where we finished, with Reuben at the edge of death, and the Heron kids fighting against David, the only adult alive. But that seems to be the easy part. Next comes the group from London, trying to restore the old world of justice, politics, money and mass farming. And Reuben is the only one who can try and convince them this is not the right path to take. 
I absolutely swallowed up this book and thoroughly enjoyed the whole series. It’s one big warning to us all.
