The
Dog Stars by Peter Heller is published by Headline
in August (£14.99):
“The
Road – but with hope. Hig, bereaved and traumatised after global disaster,
has three things to live for - his dog Jasper, his aggressive but helpful
neighbour, and his Cessna aeroplane. He's just about surviving, so long as he
only takes his beloved plane for short journeys, and saves his remaining fuel. But
he picks up a message from another pilot, and the temptation to find out who
else is still alive becomes irresistible. So he takes his plane over the
horizon, knowing that he won't have enough fuel to get back. What follows is scarier
and more life-affirming than he could have imagined.”
