A family long scattered reunites as danger approaches Springston. Brother and sister rush to sound a warning, but that warning will come too late. Bombs will thunder like the pulse of a terrible god. The great dune will flow as the sea. And when a people find themselves buried beneath the sands, who in the heavens will hear their muffled pleas?

Review of 'Sand Part 4' on 'Goodreads'

Howey has grown as a writer, giving us a more coherent story than Wool.

In Sand Howey had the story planned out while with Wool it seems like he did allot of backpedling in an attempt to create a coherent background to what was essentially a short story.

I liked the book focuses neither on the poorest nor the richest. and while the world is in decline specific technologies are still being developed.

Sand Diving is a neat idea and is explored very well in Sand.

While there are some teenage bullies in Sand the bad guys are well fleshed out, they have their own motivations and aren't stupid.
