Fire City by Bali Rai

styxx's review against another edition

3.0

Whilst clearly aimed at a teenager audience (the hero and heroine are about sixteen years old), this post-apocalyptic fantasy is gritty enough for adults too. The author is uncompromising in his depictions of the brutality of life after the demons arrive. The violence isn't gratuitous, but there is quite a bit of it; characters die with some regularity. It is an unflinching look at the struggle for survival when humans are no longer at the top of the food chain.
