About this ebook
History Is Written By The Last One Standing
For Cassandra Jeanbaptiste, her father's legacy is hard to pin down. A hero? A monster? A mix of both?
Having come north to McCartney Lake, where it all began, to preside over a controversial memorial commission, Cassy begins to see just how complicated the story is. Especially the parts that never made it into her father's journal.
Now, as a blizzard cuts off the delegation and brings the whole Confederation to the brink of collapse, old enemies return for a chance to rewrite the story of Robert Jeanbaptiste. And changing the past seems to mean erasing the people who remember what happened.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I had really thought that I would enjoy this book. I found it very hard to keep reading, it failed to keep my interest. I also found that it was very forgettable. I felt that I had to endure long drawn out and dry descriptions.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I had a strange reaction to this book, and as such, this will be a strange review. I liked it, but disliked pretty much everyone in it - not that that should be the deciding factor, but it is a rarity for me. Baptiste is one strange duck (if I wasn't reading his journal entries, I would not have pegged him for survival as he is a singularly poor judge of character and should have a trail of newborns and toddlers in his wake), Sara is oddly motivated (and frankly, a punching bag), Fiona is deified, and Lisa and Graham (probably the two I'd want in my post-apocalyptic corner) blindly defer to Baptiste's mediocre judgement until it looks like suicide to continue. Ant, who is dead before the opening pages, is by far the character with the most genuine voice and someone I wish we could have gotten to know other than from his posthumous journal excerpts. Perhaps it is a post-apocalyptic plot device - a lot happens and yet nothing happens - which leaves the reader in limbo, but also only somewhat fulfilled. Regardless, I did enjoy reading ATFWO:Coyote and look forward to the next installment. Thumbs up for pop culture references (greats for signaling the time-stop of the apocalypse) and geography of remote Canadian wilderness.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This was one of the longer books I've read but my disappointment was the fact that I was thrown in the middle of the story. The Author eluded to previous events in the past but never went on to tell about them. The book was well-written but I really wanted to know more about how this all started and how these people got together. I feel he spent too much time on one character. All the characters are interesting but you really don't know anything about them.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I was given this book in exchange for an honest review.I enjoyed this book. I really enjoyed how the writer stayed away from the zombie post-apocalyptic invasion storyline. The storyline that was created could be very plausible. A group coming together in the insane time that follows an apocalyptic demise. I look forward to reading more from this author.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I normally love apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic fiction, but I could not even finish this one. While it is technically well-written (no editing errors or things of that sort), it was boring, boring, boring! I will definitely not be reading the rest of the series.
