[6] Summary [ edit ] Original, British publication [ edit ]This brutal, no holds barred punch was filled with gruesome and disgusting detail. No illusions. No mercy. No pulled punches. Honest, bloody slaughter-like style that hit me in all the right places! This is their life now. Some kids could let go of the old life, accept, change and survive in the new brutal way of things. Others could not. Sad, bitter, and heartbreaking one minute—hilarious and hopeful the next. This story clawed at my insides in more ways than one…. Callum - A boy who is extremely Agoraphobic, he doesn't like to leave the safety of Waitrose and spends most of his time in the Crow's Nest, where he can watch out over London. He used to listen to ABBA with his mum all the time before the disease. It is told he got the fear of going outside from his mum, who it is said that Callum kills during the initial outbreak. After being killed, Callum's head is put on St George's staff that he carries around. The Kid—I can’t wait to see what this “half clever, half stupid, and half crazy” boy has up his sleeve. :) A character I kind of put in the same league as my love and obsession with Dodger from Oliver Twist. A character to keep your eye on at all times! Louise - One of the kids sent to infiltrate the Tower, she is accidentally killed by Ed. She was close friends with Tish. Day 19 - Malik captured by Windsor (Timeline changes to Ed's perspective claiming it's 19 days earlier. - see Day?+1-).

A group of kids known as The Squatters make their home in St. James's Park, with a boy named Just John as their leader. They become enemies of David King, who wants to expand his rule into St. James's Park. Blue - The leader of the Morrison's crew and one of the main characters. He explained to Maxie that he was once a bookworm, and not so good at fighting and being fat. But when the disease started to affect the adults and the early kids all been killed off by the grown-ups, Blue had to learn to fight and become a very strong leader and he said to Maxie as well, that he liked her, but he hadn't mentioned anything before because of Maxie's feelings for Arran. It's such a fast paced and engaging story, and I was on the edge of my seat for the duration of the book. There are characters you'll hate but can still feel for, and characters you just want to hug, and characters you'll be terrified for. It's gory and violent and creepy and gross, but I just couldn't put it down. And I think I'm going to try and read one of these books a week over the next six weeks to keep the story fresh in my mind. Hisgen clearly has a developed world vision, and despite the unadorned prose, is able to create an atmosphere of depression and even despair. Clearly, while all are exhausted, a number of the children are also emotionally overwhelmed, burdened with the lives of those depending on them. Atmosphere excelled, but as mentioned earlier, it's the kind of skill that will fail to entertain me. Add in a willingness to sacrifice characters and a scattershot third-person subjective narrator and emotional engagement becomes a critical problem. Perhaps the Small Sam storyline is done to mitigate the emotional distancing, but for me, it wasn't enough. Both times through I noted dialogue is done well--the voices did seem like kids speaking, and if it later treads into well-worn philosophical territory of defining humanity and rebuilding society, it at least takes awhile to get there.Alice – A little girl who plays with Godzilla after Joel is killed. Escapes David's rule with the rest of the kids. Paul Channing fights with his inner demons and his own hunger as he faces becoming something unspeakable with terrible consequences. Josa - Leader of the Slough group, she has a husky voice, pointed face, clever eyes and she is missing her front teeth. She also has a scar on her top lip and a mangled ear.
