Description
One exceptional boy journeys into the ashes of society to find the cure for a devastating plague in this riveting post-apocalyptic standalone set in the same world as the USA Today-bestselling The Girl With All the Gifts.
Once upon a time, in a land blighted by terror, there was a very clever boy.
The people thought the boy could save them, so they opened their gates and sent him out into the world.
To where the monsters lived.
"Strange and surprising and humane" (Lauren Beukes), The Boy on the Bridge is a gripping, powerful story that will make you question what it means to be human.

5By JrmfaceStellar book, and I love the closure it brings to this world. This was just as riveting as The Girl with All the Gifts.Wonderful book!
5By JW1981A sidequel to rival the first.The Boy On the Bridge - Perfect
5By robertgavilaWhat a great follow up (pre and post) to "The Girl with All the Gifts"! I always thought that "World War Z" was the ultimate intellectual deconstruction of the epidemic story, but these two books, especially this one, proved me wrong, It's a masterpiece. Plain and simple, a masterpiece. Robert Gavila
