I’m so happy that Shelf Awareness likedĀ Afterland and wrote up such a thorough review.

Here’s an excerpt, from Terry Hong:

With remarkable prescience, Lauren Beukes’sĀ AfterlandĀ takes on an “unprecedented global pandemic” with chilling results–and surprising comic relief threaded throughout. Six years after the success ofĀ Broken Monsters, the internationally bestselling South African author sets another disturbing novel Stateside, creating an epic odyssey of a mother’s determination to save her tween son.

Thanks to reader @mjudsonbooks for the gorg photo of the American edition ofĀ Afterland!
