For readers who love The Road and Station Eleven.
The world died with a whisper, not a bang. A whisper called Greenwood.
Private Arlo Finch's war ended the day the dead rose in the trenches of the Korean DMZ. His new war begins with a single, desperate goal: get home. To his wife. To his daughter. To an England he prays is still there.
But the plague that shattered the front lines is already circling the globe, and home is 5,800 miles away. With a stolen hard drive containing the last secrets of the fallen world and a reluctant ally in a sharp-witted teacher named Jia, Arlo must traverse a continent in ruin. He will face not only the relentless, shambling dead, but the living who have carved kingdoms from the chaos-a brutal warlord hoarding a bioweapon, a corporate Consortium mining the past for profit, and a fascistic Sanctuary that purges the infected with cold, clinical fire.
Arlo's only hope is a faint signal from a woman known as the Keeper, and a destination straight out of legend: the AURORA beacon, a library at the roof of the world said to hold the key to humanity's future. To reach it, he must become more than a soldier. He must become a pilgrim.
The Long Walk Home is a monumental saga of survival and hope, a heart-pounding journey across the corpse of civilization, and a haunting testament to what we carry with us when everything else is lost.
