About this ebook

As starving, travel weary people overrun High Meadow, Tillie and Angus must do a delicate dance to keep the doors open. Angus has set the boundaries for their new territory and Martin is tasked with keeping it safe. Tillie struggles to get everyone fed while keeping an eye on the stores for winter.

Wisp helps where he can, vetting the newcomers and finding stragglers, but not every person comes under his scrutiny. He has to learn new skills to deal with the increasing mental pressure of the desperate arrivals.

The refugees seem to be only concerned with food and shelter, but a handful of them might be working toward malicious aims. After a dangerous confrontation, Nick warns Angus that the biobots at High Meadow need more security.

Within the flood of people, not all are who they seem to be. The gentle people of High Meadow need to prepare for war or lose what they cherish most.

Another absolutely delightful chapter in the 'A Changed World' series by Alice Sabo. I even work up well before my alarm this morning as I found myself literally worried about several of the actors that I had left in tense situations as I settled into bed last night. Again, if you're like me and a 'fan' of dystopian tales, this is NOT your typical 'and we foraged and killed all the zombies and eventually made it to Utopia' type book. This is definitely the thinking person's view of a dire future, one that asks, nay demands that the reader wonder just what it takes to survive in such a scenario. Not just the 'humans being utter bastards' part (there is quite a good deal of that mind you) but also the 'can we get the corn in before the storm' questions that mankind will undoubtably have to face as we continue to destroy our environment and treat each other with an ever-lacking sense of compassion and real community. This series is just a breath of fresh air in that regard and I can't wait for the ending!
