The Big Empty

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if half the world died from a nasty virus? Well in The Big Empty, you get a look at what one person thinks it would be like. It is interesting enough. It is about seven teenagers that want no part of the new world the government has made up and are ready to move on. They meet in odd ways and are all completely different and have their own stories, but they all have one thing in common; to survive. In the new life after the virus, the government has evacuated everyone into certain areas. All the kids must go to school, not to learn but to be kept somewhere controlled. Most teachers and police officers aren't who they normally are, in the old world they might have worked as something else but now this is all they can do. The big empty is the evacuated zone. Can the kids make it to the new world when there are police and soldiers patrolling the area willing to shoot anyone out of place? Find out and read, The Big Empty.

I have to say that this book sounds like sci-fi to me. I don't enjoy that at all. I hope you did enjoy it!
