Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se irá gostar deste livro. Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. I enjoyed this book (though in places it is a bit gory) and would have rated it higher except for the high number of errors that permeated it. It is also a long book. I liked that Billy is not the perfect protagonist hero but that despite his disabilities, he is able to be an effective leader. I wish I could say that if something like this happened in real life, that most groups would be more like Billy's and less like the groups in Franklin or at the Wal-Mart, but I suspect that the groups that prey on the weak would proliferate in such an environment and outnumber those that tried to help each other. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
BILLLY TODD HAS ALWAYS BEEN DIFFERENT. Most people called him odd, and those were the nice people. Born with a learning disability, Billy's parents never allowed him to consider himself disabled. Raised to be self-sufficient, Billy might not be as smart as some, but he's a lot smarter than people realized. So, when the entire world is devastated by a plague that kills over ninety-five percent of the population, Billy is not helpless. Believing he may be the only survivor in his town, he manages to place himself in a good position to survive alone in a new world. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

This one came close to five stars, which I rarely give. Great unusual characters, skillfully developed and a well thought out plot. Once I started reading this, I gave up on all my chores & just binge read the entire book. An excellent mix of prepper and post-apocalyptic story
Editing: some errors, rarely so glaring that it stops the flow of the book
Sex: Implied, not graphic
Violence: There is fighting, skirmishes, death. Only a couple scenes would I put into the possible gory category
Page Turning Factor: Extremely High
Other notes: I don't remember the cursing being a huge factor in the book - sure there was some, but not constant. Religion - yeah, Christianity/Bible was in there, but not so much that it will turn folks who don't like that theme against the book. More just a couple of paragraphs here and there, easy to skim/skip. ( )
