Publisher's summary

It's been several months since Lina and Doon escaped the dying city of Ember and, along with the rest of their people, joined the town of Sparks. Now, struggling through the harsh winter aboveground, they find an unusual book. Torn up and missing most of its pages, it alludes to a mysterious device from before the Disaster, which they believe is still in Ember. Together, Lina and Doon must go back underground to retrieve what was lost and bring light to a dark world.

In the fourth Book of Ember, best-selling author Jeanne DuPrau juxtaposes yet another action-packed adventure with powerful themes about hope, learning, and the search for truth.

Clever storyline and ties i. nicely with the earlier books.

Nice finale that wraps things up. Would have liked to have seen a little more character development, but fun story to ponder.

Still love this story

I’ve listened to the story since I was very young. I still come back to every few years just to reminisce it’s such an interesting concept and I love the characters.
