the dead and the gone by Susan Beth Pfeffer

Pfeffer still captivates her audience in, the dead and the gone but not to the same a degree as in, Life was we knew it. You must read the first book in order to have more in depth knowledge of what is actually occurring. It is not rehashed in this novel, since it is more about survival than whats occurred. This is more of a companion book than a sequel. This novel focuses more on religion but is not preachy. It is also a bit more grim the the other. Expect a higher body count and more realistic views on what happens to the bodies of the dead.
