Synopsis

A girl left behind in a fallen city must fight for her life—and for love—when she meets a strange boy whose mysterious connections link him to a past she’d rather forget in the companion to the New York Times bestseller, The Forest of Hands and Teeth, perfect for fans of The Last of Us.

Annah's life is governed by the memories she'd rather forget.

The look on her sister's face before she left her behind in the Forest of Hands and Teeth. Her first glimpse of the Horde as they swarmed the Dark City. But most of all, Annah would like to forget the morning Elias abandoned her. Somehow, without him, her life doesn't feel much different from that of the dead that roam the wasted city around her.

Until she meets Catcher, and everything feels alive again.

But Catcher has his own secrets. Dark, terrifying truths that link him to a past Annah has longed to forget. And now she must decide: Can she continue to live in a world covered in the blood of the living? Or is death the only escape in life after the Return?

Goodreads review by Wendy Darling on April 18, 2011

I really liked The Forest of Hands and Teeth, which I thought was a bleak, well-written take on the whole zombie story. I wasn't as big a fan of the follow-up novel, The Dead-Tossed Waves, primarily because I thought Gabry was a bit of a whiner and a little too obsessed with boys in the middle of al......more

Goodreads review by Megan on October 15, 2011

Perhaps I need to go back and reread The Forest of Hands and Teeth. The thing is, that book blew me away. I loved the mystery, the surreal quality, Mary's craziness, the pervading sense of doom and of course the never ending onslaught of the Unconsecrated. I remember reading the book late at night,......more

Goodreads review by Giselle on July 17, 2011

This is definitely the best of the three. Just as original and thought provoking as the first two in the series- in The Dark and Hollow Places we follow yet a new character, Annah, as the protagonist. Although the others from The Dead-Tossed Waves are present as well. Some more than others, but don'......more
