The idea behind this book is intriguing. Mother nature has had enough of the abuse humans heap on her and she decides to wipe the slate clean.
I had thought the novel would be a dystopian survival novel but I am really not sure exactly what it is. Is it dystopian? Apocalyptic? Fantasy? Or a blend of all three? I found the main characters to be a bit one dimensional and had a bit of a hard time with some of the new creatures to be found. I felt like the novel didn't know if it wanted to be survive against all odds or a surreal fantasy novel. It distracted me from the novel as a whole. The vision behind the book is compelling and I really think the author has potential but the novel just didn't do it for me. I received a copy of this novel for free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
