Sunrise Ashfall Trilogy Mike Mullin Books

Sunrise is the third book in Mike Mullin's engaging Ashfall trilogy.

One of the things I really like about Mullin's writing is that he keeps the pace moving but is always filling in details so that the reader is kept immersed in the world of Ashfall and sees and feels the things the characters are experiencing, like we see in this section where Alex and Darla are venturing into a deserted town near Chicago in search of supplies:

"The final pair of scouts -- Nylce and Francine -- had followed East Avenue to a commercial district on the south side of town. When they returned, they were grim and ashen-faced. I could hardly believe what they told me. Instead of talking about it longer -- which I couldn't bear to do -- I asked them to take me there.
-- We went as a party of six -- me, Nylce, Francine, Ed, Darla, and another survivor of the Warren massacre., Trig Boling. He was a lanky nineteen-year-old with a slightly misshapen face, like it had been frozen while he was scowling in a particularly energetic way. But despite his appearance, Trig was unfailing friendly and cheerful -- I liked having him around.
-- We only had three guns, but everyone was carrying at least one knife. We stalked through the city in silcned, dreading our destination. After about ten minutes we passed the Freeport City Cemetery -- only a few of its tallest monuments protruded above the snow., lonely sentinels standing watch over a buried age.
-- Most of the buildings on West Avenue had burned. The first two shopping centers we passed had collapsed. As we approached the third, I noticed that Francine was caressing the handle of her knife, rubbing it as if it were a knotted muscle. Nylce's head flicked constantly from side to side as if she were afraid someone would sneak up on her in the few seconds since her last sidelong glance.
-- As we approached the Meadowlands Shopping Center, I saw a glint of firelight through the glass storefront of a J.C. Penney. We slowed our approach, using the snow-covered mounds hiding parked cars as cover. When we got close enough to see inside the Penney's, I realized that if anything my scouts had understated the horror of the scene.
-- Three men dressed in ragged, bloodstained clothing crouched in front of a greasy fire. Around them were scattered thousands of burnt and cracked bones. Behind them, the grisly bone pile nearly reached the high ceiling. I could identify femurs, ribs, hip bonds, and skulls -- all of the fragmentary, roasted and cracked for their marrow.
-- All the bones were human.

Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys an engaging, well-written YA novel about two teens trying to survive in a world made harshly dystopic by natural disaster.

Sunrise Ashfall Trilogy Mike Mullin Books Reviews

Sunrise by Mike Mullin
I received this book for an honest review.
5 out of 5 stars
I loved the first two books in this series and I was excited to read this book. Mike Mullin did not disappoint. There were times I was on the edge of my seat and holding my breath. The scenes in Sunrise were intense. He did a fantastic job making you feel like you were a part of the story.
Alex was a very strong character in first two books. You get to see him grow up into the man he is in sunrise. He never gave up even when times were so tough. He keep going and showing people what an amazing person he is. Alex went through some tough stuff in Sunrise but he keep it together.
Darla was also a very strong character. You also get to see her grow up from the first book to this book. You could feel the love she had for Alex. She stayed with him even when times were tough. She never let what was going on get in-between her and Alex. She isn’t your everyday girl. She can hold her own. I think that’s what I loved the most about her.
Sunrise was such an amazing book. If you have not picked up Ashfall and Ashen Winter you should do it now and then read Sunrise. This will be a series I will read over and over again. Mike Mullin has a way with words. I would highly recommend this book.
Book number three of a three book series. Young adult post apocalyptic series about the Yellowstone super volcano erupting. This particular book is set twelve months after the eruption. The book format is trade paperback, my favorite. This is not a POD book.

There is 2 to 3 ft of volcanic ash in Iowa and Illinois. Now after twelve months of forced volcanic winter, there is another 2 to 4 ft of ice and snow on top of the ash. Everyone is starving and the cannibals are everywhere. So, our hero and his girl start building more greenhouses heated by wind turbines using water heaters so they can grow more kale and wheat for their small community.

One should prepare in a very general nature for this and other types of events. History tells us that non-interesting times are limited in scope and tend to change quickly and violently. A very minimum set of things to do is
1. three months of water storage for each person in the house
2. three months of food storage for each person in the house
3. some sort of protection against crazy people, I prefer guns and ammo
4. there are many other things that you can do to prepare for natural disasters, traumatic life events, national wars, civil wars, etc
