This audiobook is based on a galley, which in turn was based on a novel from the 70‘s that is older than I am. It‘s a short listen at only a little over an hour, but since it was translated from a graphic novel it felt like too much of the story was missing. No real chance at character development, and some action sequences are bereft. Like the translator had no idea how to translate the pictures to words.
LibrarianRyan The story itself was okay, but nothing fantastic. Turning a school into a city in a dystopian world where everyone over the age of 12 has died in a pandemic hits a little close to home right now. Is this a stand out, not by any chance. There have been too many better books built around the same concept. 4y
