After sixty-six days of a catastrophic global blackout, life in the suburbs is not what it used to be for Adam and his fortified neighborhood of Eden Mills. Although an explosive clash has minimized one threat from outside the walls, Adam's battle-hardened mentor, Herb, continues to make decisions in the name of security that are increasingly wrenching and questionable. Like his police chief mom and others, Adam will follow Herb's lead. But when the next threat comes from an unexpected direction, nobody is ready for it. And someone is going to pay the price―because of Adam's mistakes and mistaken trust.

The Rule of Three Is A Good Start to A Trilogy Hello this is a review to a great book called The Rule of Three. The author to this book is Eric Walters. The genre of this book is action and adventure. The Rule of Three is a story about a post apocalypse after all electronics go out. Now, I know what you're thinking, isn't that just a power outage, actually it is not, because every electronic goes out including, phones, cars, and planes. The first question I had while reading this book is why is the book called The Rule of Three. The reason the book is called that is, a human can only last on average, 3 minutes without air, 3 days without water, and 3 weeks without food. Now that I have explained why the book is titled why it is I can summaries the story. One day at 16 year old Adam Daley's high school he was typing an essay the power goes out. Everybody is complaining that they did not save their essay, while Adam is wondering why his laptop also went out at the same time. School was dismissed early and Adam and his friend Todd went to Adams old car. But it was struggling to turn on. But in a flash it did. Adam and Todd were surprised because everyone elses car was not working. So Adam and Todd drove home but, only a few cars were working, and all of them were old. Just as they were about to reach Todds house, a huge, storm comes, what is happening. This was a great book but I feel they took a big break in between action parts. For example Adam his mom and a cop break through a window in a car to get food. But we have to wait about 80 pages to hear about the next action event. Reading this book was fun and I can't wait to read the next one.
