The Last Man

Thank God for the dogs, thinks Sam, otherwise I'd go crazy. 

It's been over five years since a deadly plague swept the world and Sam is the only person left alive...at least as far as he knows. He roams a desolate land already rapidly reverting to nature with his canine companions. But there is still danger, and Sam may not be as alone as he thinks. 

The Last Man is a refreshing and compelling post-apocalyptic short novel.
