A terribly chilling dystopian/world in ruins novel that centers around community, indigenous culture/heritage, and the dangerous of outsiders.
I think the most chilling aspect about this novel is how... close to real it felt. Both the author and narrator did a fantastic job of creating that anxiety fueled atmosphere that left me reeling chapter after chapter.
There were moments where I felt the plot lulled enough to take me out of the story, but those instances were few and far between. I'll definitely be continuing the series
