-Elizabeth Visgar, United States Army Veteran

"Innisfree confronts the terrifying reality of a world without conveniences we've so heavily relied upon and just how far you would go to protect your family. This novel will keep you reading until the very end, securing its place among the top necessities you would grab if the world would crumble."

-Callie Trautmiller, Author of Becoming American

"The novel, To See the Summer Sky, continues the intriguing story of the Henry family as they try to survive following catastrophic events; a very well written third installment in the Henry family's adventure. The character development throughout the series and attention to detail by D.M. Herrmann is unmatched by other authors. I eagerly await Fire of Death and would be pleased to see a film adaptation of this series in the future."
