It's survival of the fittest, but it's imperfect.Īnd it works for a while - years - until something happens that makes hig want a change of scenery. they have joined forces with a typical gun-loving bigot named bangley, and with hig's aeronautical abilities and bangley's killing-proficiency, they have forged a partnership, living on an airfield, where they can feel (relatively) safe from marauders and others who would try to encroach on their territory, with its functioning garden and water supply.Īnd, naturally, in these troubled times, everyone left is a potential threat, and sometimes bangley kills people that hig would prefer not be killed.
Our hero is a pilot named hig who has a dog named jasper. (but, amazon, you will appreciate all the PRODUCT PLACEMENT!!! COKE!! SPRITE!! DR PEPPER!!$$$) disaster (superflu) causes mass death, people who are left face questionable moral decisions while still yearning for community. Well, i can't five-star this book, so i guess i am writing this for nothing, and it might get deleted in the "every book is a winner" mentality of your book-worldview.īut i am gonna write it anyway, in the hopes that can still be the place it should be - where people can have opinions about books that are about books, and not as a means to move product.įor me, who has read a lot of post-apoc fiction, it just seems very familiar. Hey, amazon! you watchin' all these reviews now? making sure they are all sunshiny five-star gushings that won't hurt the authors' feelings and cost you a sale? making sure i don't drop any naughty words?
