The Last Wild by Piers Torday
4.0

This was a fantastic story! It was beautifully written, contained loads of potential points of discussion for a class and had a quick, morally strong plotline. I really liked the fact that it was based during an epidemic and we are currently living through one, it added a sense of fiction to a situation that I am struggling to process.

Come back to in order to:
- Support texts with a post-apocalyptic vibe in RfL (The Boy in the Tower)
- Consider trauma and how it manifests (inability to speak)
- Interesting way of showing speech (asterisks)
- Present tense (but consistent)
