Publisher's Summary
In this fast-paced survival story set in Hawaii, electronics fail worldwide, the islands become completely isolated, and a strange starscape fills the sky. Leilani and her father embark on a nightmare odyssey from Oahu to their home on the Big Island. Leilani's epilepsy holds a clue to the disaster, if only they can survive as the islands revert to earlier ways.
A powerful story enriched by fascinating elements of Hawaiian ecology, culture, and warfare, this captivating and dramatic debut from Austin Aslan is the first of two novels.

Soothing narration of a good story
Only one thing that disappointed me about this book was the implication that humans don’t destroy the planet all on their own.
Otherwise, it was a good story and nice to hear it from a Hawaiian point of view.
Narrator has a soothing voice but I just didn’t realise how often the word ‘forward’ is used, until someone says it incorrectly so many times in one book!

Easy read
Overall I enjoyed this book, the setting, the main character, the myths.
There was some things that made me go hmmmm? And parts of the story you went through quite quickly so there wasn’t much development. However, given the subject of the story, this fits. It’s an easy read and enjoyable in that it’s quite a different take.
