The Vagrant
by Peter Newman
‘The Vagrant’ is sort of a post-demonic apocalyptic travelogue, one man trying to escape the ruins of the world with a sword and a baby, always moving from one desolation to the next. The writing is excellent and evocative -- the demonic forces are sinister and overwhelming, what remains of civilization is convincingly crumbled and tainted, and every page reveals another dark corner of the world. It’s also great because despite the hopeless magnitude of his task, we get to read of the small victories along the way; even though the salvation he looks for might not even exist any longer, there are moments of light that make it worth still trying. That hope-in-bleakness is really attractive to me right now, and I’d really recommend this to anyone looking for a bit of relief.
