John Christopher: The Pool of Fire (Childrens Books Apocalyptic)

The last book in John Cristophers Tripod series, The Pool of Fire leads the child hero Will into the sticky wisdom which comes with maturity and of an organism undergoing metamorphosis. This is a rather fast paced and action oriented conclusion to the series, but one which through its imaginative backgrounds and deep psychological characterizations is like a tall triple expresso for the imagination. The feeling of loss upon realizing there is no continuation of the series is almost too much to bear. Live and learn.
