About this Item

Scribner, 2018. 1st Edition 1st Printing. New. 8vo - over 7à ¾ - 9à ¾" tall. Station Eleven meets The Hunger Games in this ruthless, captivating story of a young woman's survival in the frozen wilderness of the Yukon after the rest of the world has collapsed.-As the old world dies, we all must choose to become predators. Or become prey.-The old world has been ravaged by war and disease, and as far as Lynn McBride is concerned, her family could be the last one left on earth. For seven years, the McBrides have eked out a meagre existence in the still, white wilderness of the Yukon. But this is not living. This is survival on the brink.-Into this fragile community walk new threats, including the enigmatic fugitive, Jax, who holds secrets about the past and, possibly, keys to a better future. And then there's Immunity, the pre-war organization that was supposed to save humankind from the flu. They're still out there, enforcing order and conducting experiments-but is their work for the good of humankind or is something much more sinister at play? In the face of almost certain extinction, Lynn and her family must learn to hunt as a pack or die alone in the cold.-Breakout debut novelist Tyrell Johnson weaves a captivating tale of humanity stretched far beyond its breaking point, of family and the bonds of love forged when everything else is lost. Reminiscent of Station Eleven and The Hunger Games, this is a classic and enthralling post-apocalyptic adventure and a celebration of the human spirit.
