Description

"I guess it was inevitable - the end of the world we know - the end of humanity.Finding out early was a gift, surviving impact night was a miracle, living to tell the tale, well, that was the price I will pay, forever.There's no going back now."Award winning author*, Matt Pike, takes you on a journey to the end of the world and beyond, as told through the eyes of an Australian teenager, who records his experiences day by day in a survival diary. From the social chaos in suburban Adelaide in the lead-up, a night of total global catastrophe and the aftershocks as community and humanity crumble around him - the world changes forever. What's left is a place where the conditions can kill you just as easily as the other survivors.Everything our teenager relied upon for survival in the pre-disaster world falls apart - utilities, community, environment - the only things that can keep him alive are his resources and resourcefulness.*2013 Global Ebook Awards: Gold Medal - Teen Literature Fiction for Kings of the World
