Hurst: A Post-Apocalyptic Thriller by Robin Crumby

By Christine Liston

About Hurst: A Post-Apocalyptic Thriller by Robin Crumby:

What would you be prepared to do to survive in the aftermath of a flu pandemic that killed millions? Where would you go? Who could you trust?

The UK survivors of a mystery virus that swept the world hide behind the high walls of a castle, surrounded by the tidal waters of the Solent. Scraping a living far away from the smoking ruins of the cities, they wait in hope.

Hurst Castle stands alone. Its seventy-four occupants united in a struggle for survival against all the odds. The Millennial Virus is the least of their concerns.

When the arrival of outsiders threatens to tip the balance of power, the people of Hurst are faced with a desperate choice: set aside their differences and join an alliance that promises new hope or unite against the newcomers and their plans for reconstruction. Who can be trusted? Only time will tell.

The battle for Hurst has begun.

If you enjoy fast-paced, post-apocalyptic stories such as The Day of the Triffids, The Road, Station Eleven, The Stand, and The Atlantis Plague, you’ll love The Hurst Chronicles series.

“An action-packed, disturbing and thought-provoking story of an all-too-possible dystopian future.” – The Book Reviewers

“One of the most original and just flat out interesting and intelligently profound dystopian novels I’ve ever read.” – Indie Book Reviewers
