'An adventure of immense pace and imagination, with a young hero, Toby battling against terrible odds with a courage and intelligence every reader will envy and admire.' -- Roger McGough 'A thrilling adventure set at a time of total devastation.' -- Julia Eccleshare, LoveReading4Kids 'A great book and I really enjoyed it... Having a good local author is a great luxury. Not only was the setting a great aspect of the novel, but the storyline was gripping. There was so much happening that I just wanted to keep reading on to find out what was going to happen next; it was a book I just couldn't put down.' -- Greig Torpey, aged 15, Aberdeenshire 'I thoroughly enjoyed this book... This book is great for children from 9+ who love adventure stories.' -- Harriet Johnson-Gibbs, aged 10 'An atmospheric beginning to this story hooks the reader into a tale of survival against all odds ... This is an excellent read with incisive narrative and sharp dialogue.' -- Just Imagine 'This blood pumping story gives you a rush of adrenaline and the only medicine is to read it right to the last page.' -- Owen Roberts, Carousel, Summer 2011 'This gripping story of a post-epidemic world will keep readers spellbound... The dramatic tale makes fine reading; the North Sea setting with Scots characters and dialect add interest.' -- The Yellow Brick Road 'Wow!' -- Crazed Mind
