**Trapped in a superstore by a series of escalating disasters, including
a monster hailstorm and terrifying chemical weapons spill, brothers Dean
and Alex learned how to survive and worked together with twelve other
kids to build a refuge from the chaos. But then strangers appeared,
destroying their fragile peace, and bringing both fresh disaster and a
glimmer of hope.
**
Knowing that the chemical weapons saturating the air outside will turn
him into a bloodthirsty rage monster, Dean decides to stay in the safety
of the store with Astrid and some of the younger kids. But their
sanctuary has already been breached once. . . .
Meanwhile, Alex, determined to find their parents, heads out into the
darkness and devastation with Niko and some others in a recently
repaired school bus. If they can get to Denver International Airport,
they might be evacuated to safety. But the outside world is even worse
than they expected. . . .
Monument 14: Sky on Fire is the second installment Emmy Laybourne's
thrilling series.
Praise for Monument 14: Sky on Fire:
"A nifty plot that provides unexpected moments of chaos." --The Horn
Book
"Pretty darn breathless." --Booklist
"The well-paced plot leads to an ending that provides just enough
closure to satisfy and a clear opening for a third book. Libraries that
own the original need the sequel. Those without it should consider
purchasing both titles." --School Library Journal
"Since reading Monument 14--in one edge-of-my-seat, non-stop
read--I've been unable to go into a department store without planning my
survival strategy. Paranoia, Aisle 23!" --Eric Walters, author of The
Rule of Three
