This was a thought provoking series and I appreciated how the author brought it to a conclusion with this story. I must admit that at times I became very frustrated at a few of the characters at times and just wanted to close the book and not go back, but alas, I had to see what would happen next. This story also brought tears to my eyes as I wasn't expecting this to happen in this story (won't spoil anything by giving anything away here), but felt the author did a great job of showing how the Lord took a very bad and horrible situation and brought forth good from it.

In this final book the power will once again slowly start to resume for the country. But in the mean time evil will be seen, fear will be experienced and love will grow. There will be grief, but joy will come and lives will be changed. A story that will stick with me long after I have read it. ( )

A disappointing last book . It did not seem as creative or as well thought-out as the first two books of the series. This one was predictable and unimaginative. ( )

I love love love this series!!!! But this had to be my least favorite. For one it is the end of the series, I feel like I lost a bunch of friends when I turned that last page. It was also the most depressing book in the series.
After all that the Branning family has been through you would think that things would start turning around when the pulses stop and electricity starts to be restored. However things get worse for the Branning family. It tests everyone in the areas faith.
In the end it all was for a purpose like all things in life but it was still sad!! I rated it 5/5 ( )
