The wilds

Vita Ayala

Book - 2019

"After a cataclysmic plague sweeps across America, survivors come together to form city-state-like communities for safety. Daisy Walker is a Runner for The Compound, a mix of post-apocalyptic postal service and black market salvaging operation. It is a Runner's job to ferry items and people between settlements, and on occasion scavenge through the ruins of the old world. Daisy is the best there is at what she does. Out beyond the settlement walls are innumerable dangers: feral animals, crumbling structures, and Abominations--those that were touched by the plague and became something other. After a decade of surviving, Daisy isn't phased by any of it--until her lover, another Runner named Heather, goes missing on a job. Desper...ate to find her, Daisy begins to see that there may be little difference between the world inside the walls and the horrors beyond"--Amazon.com of Volume 1. more
