Fire-Us is a really good series for any age.
Published by Cheryl , 3 years ago
This is the third book in the series. I was worried I may not get into it because of the unusual names of the kids. Also because it's a kids series. But I can assure you, this is an awesome series for any age. The characters are well defined, there is no slow spots in any of the three books. Always something going on. Lots of action, very funny and lots of suspense. My friend has started reading it, because I was enjoying it so much. She loves the first book. She said, she enjoyed it as soon as she started reading it.
Chilling Conclusion

Here's the climax. The chilling conclusion. The scary exciting end of these series. It will disturb you, alarm you, and again, with these themes, it might be a bit too disturbing for younger audiences. This book is fantastic! It will make you angry in bits, but all through it you'll cheer these characters on.

Is anyone but me finding this Zimmerman person annoying? I mean, I appreciate being informed of the doings of the Left and Right wings, but this is a childrens book, for God's sake!Anyway, this thrilling final chapter will keep you glue to the book. The children, now with Cory, the girl from the Keepers, are continuing their quest to find President, the only person who might be able to help them. Unfortunately, they have reason believe her is being held against his will by the Keepers at Pisgah Island, so the older kids, Mommy, Teacher, Hunter, Cory, and a mentally deteriorating Angerman, set out to rescue him, leaving the little ones in the care of an all-female retirement community they find at the beginning of the book. What they find is more terrible than anything they've seen along the way.This concluding book held me too my seat until the very end. The construction of the novel, as we see the points of view of all the oldest children, as well as the twists and turns along the way make for a fantastic literary journey. If I may quote my favorite line from the book (I hope without giving too much away), "It's all rght, I get it. Gun breaks glass, virus kills all, ergo no bang-bang."A real page-turner: 5 stars.

This book was an excellent end to the Fire-us trilogy. If you want to read good fiction, read this series. I read some parts in this book over and over again, and I still feel like I have to read it all over again because I missed so much (I'm a careful reader, so I couldn't miss that much). Still, if you want good science fiction, read this book!!!
