The City of Ember
Jeanne Duprau
Many hundreds of years ago, the city of Ember was created by the Builders to contain everything needed for human survival. It worked – but now the storerooms are almost out of food, crops are blighted, corruption is spreading through the city and worst of all – the lights are failing. Soon Ember could be engulfed by darkness-But when two children, Lina and Doon, discover fragments of an ancient parchment, they begin to wonder if there could be a way out of Ember. Can they decipher the words from long ago and find a new future for everyone? Will the people of Ember listen to them?
Reviews
I liked the city of Ember because it is fun trying to work out the instructions. It is a fictional book but it relates to real life which I think makes it more imaginable. I would recommend this book to people who are interested in mystery and adventure as these are the main two genres.
