Taodore, Michael, Alexander, Weaver, Lionel, Richard and Adam were finally away from Markum, free to live their lives. With all of his roof tops and windows in his past, Taodore finally had the love, freedom, and family he longed for. With his son Grayson born, his next child on the way, and his mind and body beginning to heal, he finally felt safe. But that sensation was quickly lost as he fought side-by-side with his best friend to save his family from the object that had invaded his new home. As the others tried to get to Alex and Tad, realizing that the Facility was not willing to let them be free, they fought together to get to them. After opening the door to the compound room and not sensing them, not seeing them, their worst fears were of Taodore and Alexander sacrificing themselves to save the rest of them. As Jared and Jessie search for their brother in the rubble, they vowed with the others that they would band together as Taodore had wanted and free others of their kind. The Pack's revenge; go back and shut the Facility down, free others of their kind that were willing to fight by their side, and bring the hope the stories of the prodigal son gave to the children of the Facility. As the Facility continually returns to Larkin's home to stop them, the Pack formulates as a team of sources and revisit where Taodore was created and kept, to fight for the one thing Taodore always wanted, for every one of his kind to be freed and the Facility stopped for good.

While many other areas of design have commercial aspects, the success of a piece of packaging design is inextricably linked with its ability to sell a product. Packaging the Brand discusses the implications of this commercial function for a designer. It explores methods of visually communicating the value of a product to its target audience and examines the entire lifespan of a piece of packaging: from its manufacture and construction, to its display in various retail environments, to its eventual disposal and the associated environmental concerns.

Part of a series based on an important global packaging meeting, which brings together packaging researchers from universities and industry, this book covers subjects such as: active/intelligent packaging, distribution packaging, medical, cosmetic and pharmaceutical packaging, food and agricultural packaging, and hazardous materials containers.
