Bitter, Sweet and Tastily Satisfying, Fitzgerald took us on a wild journey and brought us to the end of a beautiful series with a punch to the heart and a fist to the sky.The Last Walk was at first a slow-burn with moments reminiscent of West Side Story build-up, including a bit of sideline humor about “our song”.  I was feeling a bit “oh hum” about the direction the story was taking, but then an explosion of feisty characters and fast-moving decision-making, all topped-off with a double-whammy of heart-wrenching moments, yanked me from my druthers and knocked me to my knees.  The Last Walk was a superb culmination of the first 50 years of adapting to life, and the fight for self-determination, within a Silo society hell-bent on survival.Tore my heart out and served it on a platter!  Cheers to Fitzgerald for a surefire cure for any Woolie who has been experiencing withdrawal symptoms and for expanding on the Wooliverse we have all grown to love.
