The Big Dry - Tony Davis (2013)

Dust storms, heat and drought. This is what the world has come to: a world full of wanderers, killers and lost souls with more people disappearing by the day.

George and Beeper are left alone when their father leaves on some errands and doesn't come home again. It's left to George to make sure no one finds out they are home alone, George will stop at nothing to make sure Beeper is safe, away from the clutches of Welfare. But then an arrogant and selfish girl called Emily arrives and starts to stir up trouble for the pair. How will George and Beeper survive this new found conundrum?

Tony Davis has created a broken world, a world full of survivors clinging for their lives. With blasters occurring at any random moment, little warning supplied George and Beeper are never safe! In 'The Big Dry' Davis' writing style is very serious, due to the protagonist's view point being particularly serious and protective.

One of the only things I don't like about 'The Big Dry' is that it seems like the book is moving very slowly, by the time you are about half to three quarters of your way through the book not much has really happened, but after that a lot of the action occurs all at once.

I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys dystopian fiction.

Rating: 3/5 stars
