The People of Sparks


This book is the second book of Ember and the second in a series of three. You should read the city of Ember first before reading this book and continue on to this one. I liked the city of Ember so I decided to read this book also. This book is after all the people from Ember get out and find the City of Sparks. They start to work there and they all live in a big, old hotel. The time frame of this book is after the technology age but because of wars and poverty people kind of go back into the old age. For example, they had cars but they all ran out of gas so they took out all the engines and used horses to pull them instead. After the people of ember get to Sparks many contentions rise and everyone is starting to fight. Soon, the people of Sparks want to force them out but they want to stay because they have no where else to go. You will have to read the book to find out the rest.

If you liked the book or the movie of The city of Ember then you will like this book. I have to say I did like The city of Ember more though. This is a qoute from the book: "They can't stay here," said Mary. "There are too many of them. Where would we put them? How would we feed them?" Pg. 45 paragraph 2 Author: Jeanne Duprau

  1. I loved the City of Ember, but I haven't read the other books in the series. I have heard the sequels aren't quite as good as the originals, but I am very curious to find out what happens to people of Sparks.

  2. My cousin read the City of Ember and loved it. She told me to read it every time I saw her. It would be interesting to read about a theory of what could happen in the future.
