I’ll confess I read this a few years ago, but it’s one of those reads that stay with you for a very long time and it’s story is just as relevant today as it was then. Why? Because it scared the hell out of me.
Andy Sutherland, the main character, is trying to get back to the UK, while his wife attempts to get back to their two children from a meeting in Manchester to London after the fall-out begins. All of the oil reserves have been destroyed and it’s all-out survival and each man for himself as the country goes into meltdown.
How would you react if the prime minister said that Britain has only 1 week’s worth of food and the water is cut off? What would you do?
Scarrow masterfully leads the reader to ponder such questions of how do we survive when the light goes out.
A terrifyingly brilliant book.
