![]() ![]() The writing was stunning and I enjoyed the story. You could feel the weight of that throughout the book. The world is falling apart and they have the weight of the entire human race on their shoulders. ![]() Lowrie and Shen are the last two people on earth, after an infertility crisis. It wasn’t scary in the traditional dystopian way, there was no zombies or aliens, it was scary in the way that we all know the world could end like that. Even though this book was dystopian, it was still a cosy, albeit scary read. It’s once again one of those books you read, and when you finish you can’t seem to find the right words to describe what you were feeling. I was given a review copy by Pan Macmillan SA. Lowrie and Shen face an impossible choice: in the quiet at the end of the world, they must decide who to save and who to sacrifice. Their idyllic life is torn apart when a secret is uncovered that threatens not only their family but humanity’s entire existence. Closeted in a pocket of London and doted upon by a small, ageing community, the pair spend their days mudlarking for artefacts from history and looking for treasure in their once-opulent mansion. ![]() Goodreads Description: Lowrie and Shen are the youngest people on the planet after a virus caused global infertility.
