Book Overview
One exceptional boy journeys into the ashes of society to find the cure for a devastating plague in this riveting post-apocalyptic standalone set in the same world as the USA Today-bestselling The Girl With All the Gifts. Once upon a time, in a land blighted by terror, there was a very clever boy. The people thought the boy could save them, so they opened their gates and sent him out into the world. To where the monsters lived. "Strange and surprising and humane" (Lauren Beukes), The Boy on the Bridge is a gripping, powerful story that will make you question what it means to be human.

I really prefer the short story genre. I hate devoting a long time and effort with a novel and realize 100 pages in that I am not invested in the outcome at all. This is a companion to "The Girl with all the Gifts", which I also disliked. I felt that both of these books had a very, very large amount of "filler" in them. They were both initially screenplays for TV, and then for the movies, then the "Book tie-in". It reads like it had gone through several different variations. Not for me.
