Obsessed with the apocalypse in all its trivial detail
Fine Print by T.C. Middlesex is seven horror stories about what you agree to when you're lonely, desperate or not paying attention. Here's why it belongs on a survival blog.
Our review of O.T. Nelson's 1975 novel The Girl Who Owned a City: some of the best practical survival detail in children's fiction, wrapped around a philosophy worth arguing with.
Our review of Laura Thalassa's Four Horsemen series (Pestilence, War, Famine and Death): a bold premise that works best for romance readers, with captor dynamics some readers won't accept.
Our review of Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games: why its survival details hold up better than almost any post-apocalyptic novel, and where the love triangle drags it down.
Our review of James Dashner's The Maze Runner: a gripping premise and a fast pace, undercut by thin characters and a mystery that withholds answers for the sake of it.
