Review: The Best Yet!
Rating: 5 out of 5

I just finished reading From the Ashes......well, last night really; wanted to savor the entire picture before I wrote a review.  Angela you are awesome.  When something happens in your life that is totally indescribable, the statement, "there are no words" comes to mind.  I will try to overcome this feeling to write this review.  I've been hooked on this series since I first read Survivors.  The world Angela creates is so totally different than anything I have ever read, that I never cease to be amazed at her vision.  What a horrible apocalyptic world to conquer, what heroes to do it with!  She asked what our favorite part was as we read the book, how could we pick one?  Every single turn, every single scene was so enticing and heart wrenching.  All the characters have become so fleshed out (this is Book 5) and you fall in love with each and every one of them.  You ache when they ache, and cry when they cry.  You may not agree with some of their decisions, but their choices seem real to you because you feel you "know what they would do" after all this time, and it seems right for them.  It's like you are watching the people you love in your real life living this adventure.  I want so much to happen to each of them, but only Angela will determine their destiny and I laud her every decision and move.  Those "voices" in her head as she calls them are doing a truly stellar job, please always listen to them.  For every woman, we wish we had an Adrian or Brady or Kyle, for every man I'm sure Angie is their hero, although every woman in Safe Haven is remarkable.  I've never had a book series tug at my heart the way this one does, and I am so grateful for finding it.  I read everything Angela White writes........and although every single thing I read is extraordinary, there will never be another Life After War, ever!  Obviously, I highly recommend you get lost in the series as well, but start with Survivors and learn to love every step.
