Helen and John are truly wonderful people and have a very good plan for the future after the explosion. It certainly is a huge plus that John has so much wealth and spends it wisely to purchase necessities, especially the beautiful farm in South Africa. Their altruism and intelligence in choosing and welcoming other survivors is interesting. The author's views on governments and their self serving corruption is right on! I have thought long and hard along the same lines but could have not put the right words to it. She is well studied in the after effects of volcanic explosions. I live 300 miles from Yellowstone and have been there many times. It's beauty is awesome, yet there is always the underlying threat. The story is spell binding, yet I realize it is mostly a fairy tale. Nothing could ever occur, as this did, without a hitch. However, I highly recommend reading it and thinking about the planet's possible future.
