"This is the first title in what promises to be a gripping series
depicting a near-future England in the throes of a postapocalyptic
disaster. Lebbon tells a grim tale, made a bit lighter by the
well-developed friendship among the teens and the devoted
relationship between Jack and his sister."

of all ages."

book as well..."

scary world. A great read."

adventure with a solid dose of mystery and mutations, they're sure
to enjoy London Eye."
