Summary

How far would you go to save those you love?

Lowrie and Shen are the youngest people on the planet after a virus caused global infertility. Closeted in a pocket of London and doted upon by a small, ageing community, the pair spend their days mudlarking and looking for treasure - until a secret is uncovered that threatens not only their family but humanity’s entire existence. 

Now Lowrie and Shen face an impossible choice: in the quiet at the end of the world, they must decide what to sacrifice to save the whole human race....

I could see why some would enjoy and some would not. Interesting that it was written pre pandemic. It’s a bit slow in the middle and I did not like the location status at the beginning of each chapter. Good story though, is it a children’s book?

just didn't work as an audio book as lots of social media post dialogue, some strange details thrown in with no context or follow up ... not for me I'm afraid

Really makes you rethink reality and our attachments to a materialist world. A psychological epiphany of existential possibilities

Terrifying beauty

I love this book. I couldn’t stop listening to it. The characters are brilliant and Camilla does a great job of voicing them all. The storyline is intriguing it always leaves you wondering what will happen next and excited for each new chapter. I hope to find other books like this. I highly recommend.

Wonderful story.
