I can't say I loved this book but I did really like it. I enjoy reading apocalyptic type stories. This one was done really well with a Cormack McCarthy's The Road feel to it. Definitely not as depressing though. It was about a boy, Steven, and his dad traveling around looking for things that they could salvage to trade in for things they needed. The boy's father ended up getting badly hurt and Stephen must rely on a group of people for their help. Here he learns about family, honesty, love and doing what is right. I look forward to reading more from this author.
Enjoyed this book so much. It ranks high up there with any of the dystopia/end of the world because of a virus or zombies books. This one did not have zombies featured, instead a virus known as P11(Eleventh Plague) took most of the worlds population with the exception of a few as you usually see in these stories.
You see things from a teenager's point of view, in this book. Through his trails, losing his family, learning how to live without them in this harsh and cruel world. Who to trust, who not, when to act, when not ect..From being born into this world, and trying to survive along with his father, to becoming a father himself.
I highly recommend this for anyone! Teens and adults will love this one.
