I absolutely loved this. I love apocalypse stories, and I really love Paul Tremblay's writing. This was a beautiful, fast paced book, and I loved it.

From the few Tremblay works I’ve read so far, one thing is clear: this evil, evil man loves nothing more than to write the most intimate, dreamlike depictions of loss imaginable. Survivor Song’s characters feel so real you could touch them, making it all the more easy to cry and hope against hope for them. Pair that with some of the most visceral gore I’ve ever read? I will never be the same.
