		<description><![CDATA[The Fray by Phillip Bradbury Book Summary: The story is set 2 Centuries in the future, where the world has become a desolate and unforgiving hell of unimaginable horrors. The human population has been decimated by a virus that turns its victims into marauding cannibals. The few survivors that remain exist in only a handful of barricaded settlements that are scattered across the horrific wasteland. The story follows Sera and Gabriel as they set out on a quest to fulfil a prophecy that could save the future of mankind. But there’s one big problem they must journey through hordes of deranged zombies; the victims of the Destrachan virus if they will have any hope of fulfilling it. Review: I have to say when I started reading this book it had a sense of familiarity to it, I couldn’t quite place it at first and it wasn’t until I got further into it that I realised, it wasn’t similar to any one book but to many! And that statement is in no way meant to question the author’s abilities, in fact quite the opposite. He seems to have breathed new life into the familiar, if that makes sense. Reading this book is almost like putting on a pair of your old favourite shoes, only now they seem to fit much better than you remember. I have to give kudos to the author for his ability to turn clichéd themes on their head and make them enthralling. Conclusion: I highly recommend The Fray the characters are believable and endearing, the topography is outstandingly realistic, as is the realism of the actions of the besieged settlements.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Road by Cormac McCarthy  Summary: The Road is a Pulitzer Prize winning post-apocalyptic tale penned by the great McCarthy, it tells the story of a boy and his father trying to survive in a world that’s been devastated by an unknown disaster. The book chronicles their journey south as they try to escape the cold desolate place they’ve called home. But their journey is fraught with dangers as they encounter other survivors in the smouldering wasteland with horrifying consequences. Editors Review: This is one of the most memorable and powerful post-apocalyptic books that I’ve ever read. Not only does it make the reader question what it is that makes us human it shows the reality of the frailty of humanity; desperation and starvation on the level depicted in this book is something we’re shielded against in the modern world. It ultimately asks the reader how far you would go in order to feed and protect yourself and your family.  Could you make the ultimate sacrifice in order to stop the suffering of someone you love? Although at times it’s a very dark and psychologically frightening read it’s also filled with hope and optimism and the enduring love between a father and his son and it’s this balance between the two that makes this something extra special.]]></description>
