After Us
Everyone is out for themselves when they emerge from the hub into the desolate wilderness left behind by those before them. But Milo and Maersk have found something different in the vast wasteland, something akin to community.
Until one day, when the arrival of a stranger sets them on a quest to find the answers that nobody else will face.
Only by crossing vast landscapes and witnessing the past through mysterious Viste trees, can they piece together their lost history, the demise of a civilisation and the truths that the people on the surface need to hear, that will change them all forever.
★★★★★ "A unique and compelling page turner. Like all the best sci-fi novels, After Us holds a mirror up to the challenges facing our own society." - Timothy Green
★★★★★ "Captivating post-apocalyptic novel, rich in kinship, excitement, and intrigue. It will make you question to what will you leave for those that come after us?" - William Bryan-Smith
★★★★★ "Wow, when is the film coming out?!" - Alexander Tuck
With a Foreword by Ahmed Khan and Afterword by Benjamin Alba.

A thought provoking book. It depicts a view of what the world might look like “after us”. There is an element of resentment towards it the way it is now, but also hope and faith in humanity to change it. A deep sense of brotherhood rules the plot and a feeling of community and cohesion that needs to be present and is pivotal to the restoration and preservation of the world. This book made me cry, it made me laugh, it made me anxious to do my best to help the future. Recommended!
