Editorial Reviews
Review
"Fisher's survivalist journey through the ruins of our future is both funny and affecting, full of transformed creatures, broken cities, and mad robots. Amid desperate escapes, explosive battles and piles of mammoth dung, The Boy at the End of the World, also manages to ask interesting questions about our place in the world, and where we're headed as a species." —Paolo Bacigalupi, Printz Award winning author of Ship Breaker

"Greg van Eekhout's The Boy at the End of the World is both moving and full of adventure. This remarkable survival story will change the way readers think about themselves and the world they live in." —Sarah Prineas, author of The Magic Thief

The mods deleted my last post about this book saying it wasnt' a sale, which confuses me, and because I evidently quoted too much of the description page. So if this post seems inapprorpriate, lemme know and I won't post anymore about books discounted to $1.99.

The book's about a kid who ends up being the last person on earth.

Got it on Kobo, and since it's a non-agency book also was able to use a discount coupon from their current promotion as a bonus.

Thanks!

Don (Moderator) __________________ “How to Write the First 3 Paragraphs of YOUR Indie Novel” - by Max Waxwelp 1) Always write 3 sentences of exposition; 2) now create some dialogue, preferably no more than 2 sentences; and 3) make certain the dialogue is either inane or humorous. Example: “Bob, I did not know you wore yellow suspenders,” Sally remarked. “Gee, Sally, those are not suspenders. I am wearing yellow underwear today,” Bob revealed. The dialogue above will help produce at least 100 more pages of dialogue.
