A LIMITED SIGNED AND NUMBERED EDITION
For Scarlet, raising two daughters alone means fighting for tomorrow is an everyday battle. Nathan, desperately clinging to a dead-end job and a loveless marriage, survives purely for his little girl, Zoe. Miranda's biggest problem is driving her sister home from college with their boyfriends, whilst keeping her new Mini Cooper scratch free.
When news comes of a deadly epidemic, panic seeps into homes all over the world and chaos ensues... Knowing that they can't outrun the danger, they all head for shelter and security at the same secluded ranch - Red Hill.
When a normal day spins out of control and the world comes crashing to an end. How far will they go to save their loved ones? Would you slow down to help a stranger if you were running for your lives?
Set against the backdrop of a brilliantly realized apocalyptic world, love somehow finds a way to survive. But what happens when the one you'd die for becomes the one who could destroy you…
Wow! Talk about something different!!!
Zombie (or shufflers, teds, infected, etc) are the thing lately, so I thought I try this one. It's very different from what I would normally read, but there was just something about it that I liked. it's not a touchy, feely story that will leaving you feeling good at the end. It's dark, gritty and at times a little frightening. But what kind of post apocalyptic story wouldn't be these things?
We get several different character perspectives in this story, all starting from a very different place on the day the world "ended". Through their eyes we get to see just how the world changed, what they had to go through to find their "safe place" and what they lost as the epidemic started by one man changed their lives forever.
This definitely won't be for everyone, but if you enjoyed World War Z this is one you'd probably want to pick up.
