Horn Book (Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 CDT 2018)

Teens face natural disasters and evildoers in standalone survival stories. Gloria braves the harsh Arizona desert after an airplane crash (Crash); two frenemies lost at sea overcome the elements and modern-day pirates (Skies); an American church youth group escapes a volcanic eruption and flees Congolese rebels (Wind). The hi-lo narratives are accessible, but the melodramas become tiresome. There are three other fall 2017 books in this series.

After a weeklong trip to Rwanda, an American youth group embarks on the experience of a lifetime: a trek up the Nyiragongo volcano in the neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo. Now the volcano has been calm for years, and tourists once again brave its slopes. But as night falls and the trekkers take shelter at the craters rim, a low rumble announces that the volcano might not be so calm, after all. The Evil Wind is from Survive, an EPIC Press series.
