About this eBook
Fourteen kids stranded inside a superstore. Inside they have everything they could ever need. There's junk food and clothes, computer games and books, drugs and alcohol ... and without adult supervision they can do whatever they want.
Sounds like fun?
But outside the world is being ripped apart by violent storms and chemicals leaking into the atmosphere that, depending on blood type, leave victims paranoid, violent or dead.
The kids must remain inside, forced to create their own community, unsure if they'll ever be able to leave. Can they stop the world they've created inside from self-destructing too?

I really enjoyed the book (although I wouldn't recommend it for anyone under 16 years old), but I'm a bit frustrated that you said the second book would be out in May but still isn't on the Play Store. Can't seem to find it anywhere other than Amazon, and I would prefer an e-book.

I myself, read the paperback edition but this book is a 5 star to me. Great contrast and the language use is pretty simple in most cases, so its suitable to most above 12. Looking forward to the third book, after reading this and Sky on Fire! 😀
