Description

In the post-apocalyptic future, Wren and his companions prepare for one final battle against his nefarious half-brother and the horde of cybernetic zombies Wren is living in Greenstone under the temporary care of Charles and Mol, and the protection of Chapel. Unable to determine the fate of his mother and those he left behind in Morningside, Wren believes there is nothing left to do but wait for Asher's final blow . . . until a man named Haiku walks into the Samurai McGann, looking for Three. After learning of Three's fate, Asher's ascension, and Wren's gift, Haiku offers his help. Together, they set out to find the remnants of House Eight and convince them to help. As Cass and the few who survived the fall of Morningside face overwhelming odds to escape Asher and the Weir, they realize it is impossible . . . until their daring and probably suicidal plan to strike turns out to have surprising results and unexpected discoveries.

Reviews

Dawnbreaker is the third book in the Legends of the Duskwalker trilogy, which may be one of the best sci-fi trilogies published in the last decade. Start at the beginning, with Three, and dont stop until you get to the end.
Looking for a Good Book

Dawnbreaker is every bit the great final novel of this trilogy, and ended as good as it started. Couldnt have asked for more. Highly recommend this trilogy, start to finish!

The book has a lot of heart and enthusiasm going for it and I really appreciated the manner in which Jay ended the series.

PRAISE FOR THE LEGENDS OF THE DUSKWALKER SERIES

Stark and powerful, Three is a stunning debut. Reinventing the post-apocalyptic western as a journey across interior badlands as dangerous as the cyborg-haunted terrain his hero must cross, Posey has crafted a story that is impossible to put down.
Richard E. Dansky, author of Vaporware and Snowbird Gothic

Jay Posey creates a vivid and mesmerizing world whose characters are so realand so flawed that youll recognize them immediately.An unforgettable read.
Peter Telep, co-author of the #1 New York Times bestseller, Against All Enemies

Gritty action-packed drama so hi-res and real youll believe you got something in your eye.
Matt Forbeck, author of Amortals and Dangerous Games

Three feels like the result of tossingMad Max, Neuromancer and Metal Gear Solid into a blender. Ifyou dont find that combination appealing, then I do not understand you as a human being.
Anthony Burch, writer for Borderlands 2and Hey Ash Whatcha Playin

Three is a great start into a new series. The post-apocalyptic world that Jay Posey created in Three is brilliantly constructed, its just chock-full of the cool stuff, futuristic gadgets (guns and the like), augmented people and not forget the Weir.
The Book Plank

Three is a post-apocalyptic adventure tale in the vein of The Road Warrior, only with fewer vehicles and a higher tech level and body countPosey knows how to pour on the tension.4.5 stars. Now Ill twiddle my thumbs until the next Legends of the Duskwalker book comes out.
Shelf Inflicted

Posey has constructed a really unique world, one that steps to the side of the usual zombie tropes and provides an apocalypse thats at once unfathomable, but also believable. Thats no mean feat.
SF Crows Nest

What really drew me to this book was the mix of elements. Its post-apocalyptic. Its a western in styling. Its science fictionsometimes rather hard science fiction. Its a bit of a fantasy, too. The blend of fantastical elements with the science fiction ones, which are in turn harnessed to the western post-apocalyptic setting is a matter of brilliance on Poseys part.
On Writing

Morningside Falls is a clever, unexpected take on a digitally enhanced post-apocalyptic world.
Never To Be Told

You never know whether book #2 will be as good as book #1. Rest easy although Morningside Fall has to take a different tone because of story development I feel its every bit as good as Three and it makes me anxious to read book #3! Mr Posey, Im ready for the next installment!
