Synopsis

***** ‘Omg! How can a person write a book like this? Is K.N. Milde a genius? Must be! It's a masterpiece!’ Readers can't get enough of Ashley’s story: Tomorrow is Recruitment Day. Or, as I like to call it, Sign Your Suicide Contract Day. And like all the sane people alive—who are few, both in terms of sanity and life status—I don’t plan on sticking around for it… The Sector Protection Force—SPORE—is all that stands between humanity and the infected. Like everyone else her age, fifteen-year-old Ashley is forced to join the training program to become a soldier – she just didn’t think her attempt to escape recruitment would backfire so badly. Left for dead by her own friends, Ash is rescued by SPORE – the very people who killed her father. Now, not only is she stuck with a bunch of suicidal recruits who worship everything she hates about SPORE, she also owes them her life. On the bright side, Ash is perfectly positioned to get what she’s always wanted: an escape to the outside world. ‍♀️‍♂️ ‘Is K.N. Milde a genius? Must be!

Those Who Survive is a dystopian post-zombie-apocalypse YA sci-fi novel that is more enemies-to-lovers romance than military fiction.

Goodreads review by Meagan on January 04, 2025

This is a post-apocalyptic story. I had always wondered what it would be like to live in a world where the unimaginable is the main theme and survival is of the utmost importance. In real life, though, the unthinkable does happen but we are the zombies. This story has all the elements of a sci-fi/fan......more

Goodreads review by Ristretto on February 08, 2025

Those Who Survive is a bit of The Last of US and The Walking Dead, with a bit of Attack on Titan. We follow Ashley, one of the Privileged in this apocalyptic society, who plans to escape the walled city with her friends, entering infected territory. They all have their reasons for wanting to leave t......more
