Review #2 The White Mountains audiobook streamming online So, a bit of a throwback, but it has held up remarkably well, and is a solid, well made, and entertaining choice for a new sci-fi survival/adventure reader. (By the way, sometimes this book is referred to as “Book Two”, but that’s just because it got renumbered after the prequel came out.) There’s no “cliffhanger” as such, but of course there’s lots more story to follow in the later books. That said, this book ends, (SPOILER), with the boys just making it to the rebel stronghold. The book is crisply paced and directly written, with enough description and character building and scene setting, but also with headlong action, dollops of suspense, and a sort of headlong rush to book two. And a vaguely dystopian, post-historical setting with references to “ancient technology” that kids will recognize. And this has everything a young reader could want.
