It’s been less than a year since Huck and his beleaguered companions departed from Pod Horizonte on their fateful Release Day. During that time, they’ve defeated countless invading Arthropods, fought political corruption, stolen a weapon capable of ending the four-century war, and lost innumerable friends. After traveling halfway around the globe, their final destination and lost companion lie just beyond reach.
Zephyr’s Hope is the thrilling conclusion of the Release Day Saga. Join Huck, Ariadne, Hemant, and the rest of Memo’s Misfits as they complete the last stretch of their perilous journey. To destroy the inverts source, the Hive, they must cross the infested Indian Ocean and the impenetrable Australian desert to return humans to their rightful place on Earth—its surface.

I've read all 4 books in the Release Day Saga and I absolutely love the way each one keeps you on the edge of your seat! The Lord of the Rings trilogy was my favorite book series but now Release Day Saga is tops! So well written and Mr Matthews has a way of keeping things going! They're so good I hated to stop reading! They'll definitely keep your blood pumping! Totally recommend this series!
This book made me gasp several times. I can't decide if Arjun's end or Araidne cutting the rope was more shocking. This book definitely kept me hooked.

An amazing ending to an amazing series. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time, anxious for these characters who I have come to love. This whole series was so fast paced and jam packed with adventure and twists, I couldn’t have enjoyed reading it more. Matthews could not have tied a more perfect bow on this story. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Wow! The perfect way to wrap up an amazing series. In these books you meet so many amazing (and crazy) characters, go on endless adventures, and find out what it truly means to fight to save the world. I loved the different timelines in this story! There were revelations that made my jaw drop. I absolutely loved it!
