For a young adult novel this was not bad. I think it would be a good introduction to the apocalyptic genre for a young reader.

I read this over a weekend so I could use it as a stimulus for the English work the children in the year 6 class I was working with were going to do. Although, the purpose of this was to read the book and create activities around it, I found that I was drawn into the book and constantly wanting to know what was going to happen next. Zoe, is a strong character and I like the way the author has shown this throughout the book. He has shown that strong can have many different definitions. I would highly recommend this book not only to use as a stimulus but as a read because it really gets you thinking.
