This book is the sequel to The City of Ember. Now that the people who escaped from the City of Ember are above ground, they have no idea how to survive. The People of Ember find out that they have been living underground and that there are more people than just them in the world. The People of Sparks also find out that there are 400 more people in the world now. The village of Sparks takes in the 400 people just because they feel they need to save the existence of the human race. After a while, the village leaders decide that the people of Ember can only stay for six months, then they must leave. After about two months there are incidents that happen that make Doon and Lina suspicious. They find out that Tick is lying about things just to get power and to start a war. Doon and Lina also find out that war is not the best choice, and that war is what destroyed the city if Ember in the first place.

The City of Ember is back; it is no longer an underground city. The people of Ember now live in the fresh air with the hot sun as light instead of depending on light bulbs like they were used to. However,they are not the only ones living there. The People of Sparks have their own little town with no room for another 400 people. The two cities must learn to work together to turn the town into one big, successful city. The people of Ember have never done real outdoor work. Will these two cities ever learn to come together as one big city? Find out when you read this book.

The People of Sparks is the sequel to City of Ember. I suggest that you read City of Ember first, to help you to understand the sequel.
