(4) YA After ousting the cannibalistic adults, various factions vie for control of the District: compassionate Esther, calculating Gideon, and manipulative Saith. One by one, consumerism, bars, brothels, cults, slavery, and the ever-present danger of poisonous rainwater threaten to destroy the community. While dedicated fans of the Wasteland books will enjoy this conclusion, others will be disappointed by the abrupt, implausible ending.
