This was an extraordinary novel by a first time novelist out of a good writing creative writing program. I hope for good things from her over the years.
So the story. The world as we know it destroyed. Earthquakes got LA. There are other natural disasters in other parts of the country. Order breaks down. A couple leaves LA to live in the wilderness. And their world is slowly revealed to them.
About that world? Let's say it's the recreation of civilization. Civilization is the silk glove over the iron fist. The king is a bandit on the make, the bandit a king in the making. The dude in charge has guns, bombs and old books. People are in it, people haven't really changed, so they just started the thing back up.
Read this one.
