Now What? Book 1: The Gone

“We call them the Gone because the person inside isn’t there anymore. It’s not about monsters. It’s about absence.”Gary thought he had a plan: survive, head north, find his dad’s cabin.What he didn’t count on was having to lead a group made up of a bat-wielding brawler, a girl with sharper instincts than her blade, and a sugar-fuelled joker who wouldn’t shut up. They’re not exactly a dream team — but they’re all he’s got.The Gone are relentless. And staying human might be the biggest challenge of all.Now What? is a darkly funny, character-driven survival story set in post-apocalyptic England — perfect for fans of The Last of Us, Charlie Higson’s The Enemy, Shaun of the Dead and Stand By Me with zombies.
