Interpretation In Favor Of Books Circle of Flight (The Ellie Chronicles #3)
You jam on the brakes and stop the ute right at your front door. You jump out. Not for the first time you run into a house that could be full of guns, with death waiting for you. It is a time of profound change for Ellie Linton. Enemies are everywhere. Some come crawling over the hills; others drive in and knock on the front door. Sometimes her friends are at her side and sometimes she is on her own. Ellie is a fighter. She has faith in her own abilities. But she is not Superwoman. Never has she faced enemies so ruthless, so brutal. And not every battle can be won with a gun and bullets. When the ammunition runs out, who will be left standing? Trapped and helpless, Ellie must face the end of life as she knows it...sustained only by strength and imagination.

Potential spoilers for all three books in The Ellie Chronicles and the Tomorrow series.I really, really disliked this book and The Ellie Chronicles in general and I'm shocked at the amount of positive reviews here. I truly wish I'd never read this series. I feel it's like Mr Marsden wasn't even trying. My guess is someone drived a dump truck full of cash up to his house, asked him to write another set of stories, and he said yes. Even though he didn't have a story to tell.This was not the EllieUnlike some of the other reviewers, I was really excited for a look at life after the war. So many books and movies resolve a situation like that and you never get to see how these people pick up the pieces of their lives afterwards. Unfortunately, these books were not what I was looking for. I actually found the farming stuff fairly interesting and it was neat to see how Ellie dealt with the farm practices and running the whole operation... But the weak link here was Gavin.The Tomorrow series
The thing that made sad the most about this book is that the author, John Marsden has wrapped up this wonderful series. No more Ellie, Lee, Gavin or Homer. I guess I will have to just imagine how their lives will turn out but I guess that they will be fine because they are characters that think things out even if not always as things are happening. I would love to have people like this in my life except that I would, I guess, have to have way more action in my life than I really would know what
I'm done! Goodbye Ellie & co.
The final book about Ellie Linton, the Aussie farm girl whose saga began with Tomorrow When The War Began. I have thrilled over these books, which are both action-packed and full of heart, as Ellie has fought to free her family, and then to keep her family together in the aftermath of the war. This book was no exception, containing equal parts terrorist attacks and legal drama, finishing off her saga quite nicely with one exception. You know what I'm talking about, Marsden! How could you?! The
I don't really know how to feel about this, which is apparently the final installment in the saga of "Man, it really sucks to be Ellie Linton". On one hand, I loved it because it was full of all the stuff we've come to know and love about Ellie. But on the other, there were so many things that weren't adequately dealt with in favour of adding in another "go across the border and kill some people" sequence. I think I would have preferred it if the romance side of things had gone unmentioned.
I was really apprehensive about the big finale of Ellie's journey. I didn't particularly love the first two books but this one by far was the best. Its always the relationships that matter in the end and the bond Gavin, Ellie, Lee, Homer and the Liberation developed was great. I just wish there was more of Fi. Having said that it was a great way, for me, to end the journey and I am getting irrationally emotional about it but its a book series i've come to love so its a bit heart breaking for me
