Some of my favorite quotes are: “The City of Ember? What’s that? I’ve never heard of it”
and “"Remember the city, the city remember Where treasure is hidden under the ground
The city, the city, always remember”
I think this book is best for ages 9-12 years old but is a fun, adventurous, easy read for young adults.
Publishers Weekly: In this ambitious sequel to The City of Ember, "DuPrau offers a thought-provoking novel about brinkmanship and the way societies can plant the insidious seeds of war,"
“DuPrau clearly explores themes of nonviolence and when to stand up for someone else”-School Library Journal
“The fast paced tale of post-Apocalyptic strife will resonate with new and returning fans alike”-Kirkus Reviews
I recamend this book for anyone that loves adventurous and books packed full of surprises. And for a quick read!
