Beskrivelse
Set immediately after the events of Survival of the Fittest: Metamorphosis, and as the global pandemic has ravaged society, the disparate survivors are gradually brought closer together as they fight for their lives or seek out family and help. Ordinary citizens are thrust together and forced to make choices that they are not used to as they evade the viral victims of the outbreak.
Pearce writes dystopian horror not just with a punch but with thought as well, interweaving philosophy and thought-provoking moments into the genre.
"Adaptation begins where Metamorphosis left off, with a scattered cast of characters gradually finding each other-and finding ways to adapt to the terrifying metamorphosis of the world. As the storylines merge, we see how the good and the bad, the bright and the feckless, the brave and the cowardly, begin to change to meet the new challenges, or fall victim to their own inflexibility. An absorbing read, with glimpses of light and hope through the dark clouds of the new reality." Rebecca Bradley, author of Cadon Hunter and From Hades With Love
¿"Adaptation continues directly on from Pearce's brilliant apocalyptic novel Metamorphosis, with his fascinating and relatable characters dealing with hard ethical dilemmas, difficult alliances and the unravelling terror before them. It's a compelling book with humour, credibility, palpable dread and a healthy thread of philosophy scattered throughout." Gareth Howells, author of Out Among the Ice Beacons
