<P> In town Eli barters with a store owner, the Engineer (Tom Waits), to recharge the battery of his portable music player . While waiting, he goes across the street to the town bar, where a gang of bikers attack, but he quickly kills them all . Realizing Eli is a literate man like himself, Carnegie asks Eli to stay, making it clear that the offer is non-negotiable . After Carnegie's blind mistress Claudia (Jennifer Beals) gives Eli some food and water, Carnegie orders Claudia's daughter Solara (Mila Kunis) to seduce Eli, but he turns her down . While killing time, she finds his book . Unperturbed, Eli offers to share his food with her, and before they eat, he says grace . The following day, Solara repeats the prayer, but Carnegie overhears them and realizes Solara's words relate to the book he has been seeking . He soon forces Solara to tell him if Eli was reading a book, and realizes Eli's book is the one he wants--a Bible . </P> <P> Eli sneaks out of his room and Carnegie has his henchmen shoot at Eli, but the bullets seemingly just graze him, as if he is being protected .

Solara, having left the town, leads Eli to a cave which is the town's water supply, hoping she can accompany him on his travels . Eli traps her inside and continues on alone . Solara escapes and soon finds herself ambushed by two bandits who attempt to rape her, but Eli reappears and kills them . As they continue on, Eli explains his mission to Solara . According to Eli, his book is the last remaining copy of the Bible, as all other copies were intentionally destroyed following the nuclear war thirty years ago . He says he was led to the book by a voice in his head, which then directed him to travel westward to a place where it would be safe . The voice assured him that he would be protected and guided on his journey . </P> <P> Eventually, Eli and Solara investigate an isolated house . They fall into a trap, but manage to allay the suspicions of the residents, George (Michael Gambon) and Martha (Frances de la Tour), who invite them in for tea . When Eli realizes that the couple are cannibals, they attempt to leave just as Carnegie and his henchmen arrive . In the ensuing shootout, George, Martha and many of Carnegie's men are killed . While Eli and Solara are captured, Carnegie threatens to kill Solara unless Eli surrenders the Bible . With the Bible now in his possession, Carnegie shoots Eli, leaving him for dead . Solara escapes and drives back to help Eli . Rather than chase her, Carnegie returns to the town, since his sole remaining vehicle is running low on fuel . Solara finds Eli, and they drive until they reach the Golden Gate Bridge, and then row to Alcatraz Island, where they find a group intent on preserving what they can of literature and music . Eli tells the guards that he has a copy of the King James Version of the Bible . Once inside, Eli, revealed to be blind, begins to dictate the Bible from memory to Lombardi (Malcolm McDowell), the leader of the group . </P> <P> Meanwhile, back in the town, the Engineer opens the locked Bible where Carnegie discovers, to his dismay, that it is in Braille, and orders Claudia to read it to him . She pretends that she cannot remember how to read it, telling Carnegie his leg wound has become infected and his men have begun to run amok . At the sanctuary, Eli has died, but not before he finished reciting the entire book . The printing press at Alcatraz begins producing copies of the Bible, and Lombardi places one on a bookshelf between the Torah and Tanakh on one side and the Quran on the other . Solara, though offered sanctuary, chooses to return home, taking with her Eli's sword and other possessions . </P>
