36 pages. 36 pages for a fantasy story that will remain with readers for years to come. This is a post-apocalyptic story where nature has once again taken over. The author Alex E Harrow has done a masterful job, blending fantasy, and science fiction into a modern tale of love and disaster. To say more gives too much of the story away but one of my favorite parts to leave you wanting more is to tell you that the sacred texts in the story are Katherine Applegate’s series called the Annamorphs.
