The EcoMites were humanity's greatest achievement—microscopic machines that dissolved pollution, purified water, and healed our dying planet. Then their definition of "pollution" changed. Now they consume everything organic. Everything alive.
Everything except one man and his sanctuary.
Dr. Joseph Kellerman is the last man on Earth, surviving alone at Alaska's Aurora Station while generators fail one by one. Outside his protective bubble, the air shimmers with invisible death. Inside, he talks to ghosts—his dead wife, his lost colleagues—as his limited supplies run out and the end draws ever closer.
But when a massive solar storm approaches, Joe sees something impossible—a chance. One desperate gambit that could change everything. Or end everything.
Some problems can only be solved by those with nothing left to lose.
Until Nothing Remains is a haunting tale of isolation, sacrifice, and what it means to be human when humanity is gone.
In general, I liked the book. Easy read, likeable characters.
But I'm one of those people that gets hung up on a detail that's so fundamentally wrong that it makes the entire book implausible. Without giving too much away, the main character does something at the end that just could never, ever happen. And it spoils the rest for me. But thats just me.
I thoroughly enjoyed this post-apocalypse story that reminded me of The Martian. Rogue nanotechnology has wiped out life on Earth, and a lone survivor remains to figure out a solution to save the world and maybe himself. The story had me wholly engaged and I hope a studio buys the film rights.
A well written apocalyptic survival novel! In the same vein as The Martian, my geeky engineer dad would have loved this book. Enough tech to keep it interesting, but not too much to get bogged down. A smooth read that kept me going for just one more chapter.
I seldom give reviews unless the book or item seriously sucks or is much, much better than I expected.. this book is in the latter category. DEFINITELY worth reading!
Unique plot and unlike anything I’ve ever read but also still a great apocalyptic book. 10/10 recommend if you can glass over the few spelling and grammatical errors.
4 ⭐️ What a little climate fiction apocalyptic gem. It got a little repetitive and sciency for me in the second half, but I really enjoyed the commitment to the story and also the writing style.
