Book review - "Final Chance" by David Sullivan


I’m always glad when my friend David Sullivan releases a new story.  His most recent novel Final Chance takes place in the year 2027 after a devastating plague, the N-virus, has killed 85% of the world’s population.  Travis bikes from Seattle to a small town in Oregon to reunite with his grandfather.  The rest of their family died and they are the only two left.


A nearby house catches fire and the three siblings, Winston and his sisters, living in it have to move in with Travis and his grandfather.  Travis and Winston hit it off and soon become lovers.  Together they have to protect their families and survive in a post-apocalyptic world with no infrastructure or law enforcement. 

The only problem with Sullivan’s story is the editing, which I have addressed with him.  Other than that, it’s a good story with great characters.  It kept my interest and I finished it in a short amount of time.  I would have like to see a little more development in their situation, such as Travis and Winston discovering more people alive and thriving, and can start re-building a community. 

Maybe a sequel?
