“Layla is a wonderfully multifaceted heroine… Ryan keeps readers on the edges of their seats. Fans of The Last of Us will be enthralled.” – Publishers Weekly

“A captivating story of survival, pervaded with riveting action made all the more thrilling by the high stakes…” – FanFiAddict

I Am Legend meets Dying Light 2…What I liked: The author’s ruthlessness – and I shan’t elaborate on that, because of spoilers, but dear lord.” – Happy Goat Horror

With echoes of The Road, The New York Times bestselling author Anthony Ryan’s The Feeding is a brilliant post-apocalyptic novel that finds the sweet spot between commercial, literary, and creepy. Perfect for fans of Justin Cronin, M. R. Carey, and Alexis Henderson.

Fifteen years ago the feeders rose from the shadows to transform the world into a graveyard. The few survivors exist in fortified settlements surrounded by the empty ruins of a destroyed civilization. For years the citizens of New City Redoubt have relied on an elite cadre of Crossers to navigate the feeder infested wasteland between settlements in order to trade for vital supplies. But the Outside is becoming ever more dangerous, and the ranks of the Crossers grow thinner with every crossing.

Layla, only a child when the Feeding destroyed the old world, spends her days scavenging the ruins for valuable scrap and her nights helping her adoptive family eke a living from the Redoubt’s only movie theatre. Now, with her father slowly dying, Layla resolves to join the Crossers to retrieve the medicine that can save him. Smart, ruthless, and fast on her feet, Layla quickly gains the respect of her fellow Crossers. But, in a world lost to the deadliest predators, can even the most cunning prey survive?

The UK edition of The Feeding will be released on October 14th. See the book page for pre-orders.

In further service to the apocalyptic theme, those nice people at the Ginger Nuts of Horror site were kind enough to invite me to write an article on my enduring love for the work of British TV writer Nigel Kneale – a seminal influence on my non-fantasy works.
