Summary: 500 years from home...
Review: 500 years from home the remnants of the Mayflower project find themselves on a strange spaceship that seems to be centered around a structure which seems to resemble "The Tower of Babel". The group of survivors have now split into two. Jobs, Mo'Steel, Violet Blake, Olga, and the wierd Billy Weir are on one team while Yago, Tamara, her weird alien of a baby, 2face, and the rest of the crew are on the other team. This planet of a spaceship is not what it seems. Riders are consistanly on the prowl for the survivors. Jobs and Mo'Steel's team meet a Blue Meanie who from the interpretation of Billy Weir explain to them about Mother. Mother he says is very confused and sad and needs to be shut down for awhile. However can they shut mother down in time before the other demons convulge on them?

This book was definitely what you call strange. However it explains a lot about the first 2 books. There is also a lot of character development and description. However some parts of this book was sketchy and other parts were just plain strange. However besides that this was a great book!

Summary: What lies in the Tower?
Review: Babel,the Tower of Babel.That's what the 2 groups of Remnant's
see on the Horizon.

Yago and Wylson think it would make a perfect battle station,to conqeur the Riders and the Blue Meanies,and eventually conqeur whatever put them in the ship,maybe even conquer Mother...

While Jobs,2FAce,Mo'steel,and the rest of their small group are just trying to stay alive...

Yago's group learns about Tamara and her Baby's power to eliminate the Blue MAenies and the Riders.She agrees to help again under one condition,Her Baby is getting hungry and it wants meat,human meat......

In Jobs group,they have stumvled into a living paitning,it's called "Last Judgement",it's one man's version of hell.they also have been comunicating to a Blue Meanie through Billy who is still unconcious...

I can't recomend this series enough!it maybe confusing and at times scary but there is just the right amount of scariness,and drama,and comedy,and much more!

Although the part of this book with "the LAst Judgement",was terribly frightening,I still recomend this book!

I also recomend the author's other series Animorphs,and Everworld...

Hope this Helped you!

Summary: Great book, but a bit stressful.
Review: The third book in K.A. Applegate's Remnants series is a big one. It packs in a lot of action, information, and chracter development. For those who have read 1 and 2 there is a lot more explained about where the Mayflower is. First off, Jobs, Mo'Steel , Mo's Mom, Violet Blake, and the canatonic Billy Weir have made contact with a 'Blue Meanie,' an alien that invaded the alien ship they are on. Their group and the other group, led by Violet's Mom, head for the recreated Tower of Babel in the hopes that it will give them protection from the deadly alien riders. They discover that that insides of the tower are a recreation of a group of paintings made by a famous artist's vision of hell(the groups discovered in book 2 that the aliens wanted to make an enviroment suitable for them, so they accessed and recreated paintings in the Mayflower's computer). Hell it certainly is. We also discover that the strange, and murderous, marine Tamara Hoyle is really under the influenece of her baby. Why, and to what end is unknown, but we do know that she gets superhuman strength from the baby, and that it can only eat human flesh(gross, huh). With so much happening, and there is much more happening than what I mentioned, it becomes so much that reading it is stressful. Too stressful at some points. Still, it's a great book that most people should enjoy.

Summary: The Separation
Review: Where we left off, everyone was split up. Now we switch back in forth during each chapter to be updated on what each group is doing. In one group, a boy Yago who was the president's son is trying to take charge spliting everyone up into groups: ormal and freak. And he picks on 2Face, a girl who was the victim of a fire, and Edward, a boy who was mutated and is like a Chameleon, changing with its backround. The other group is about to be killed by a painting (!) after learning important information about the "planet" they're on. How is the human race supposed to live on, or was this meant to be the end? I couldn't put this book down, I don't know about you, because some people like my friend don't have the stomach for this series. But the few of us who do should enjoy K.A.'s work.
