D. L. DAVIES OFFERS A GLIMPSE OF A POST-ARMAGEDDON WORLD IN HIS DYSTOPIAN BOOK “GEE”
Follow a spellbinding journey of a young boy as he perseveres through the trials of time, demonstrating his enduring spirit and unyielding resilience
Acclaimed storyteller D. L. Davies makes a captivating return as he transports readers into the post-apocalyptic universe set in his gripping masterwork, “Gee.” In the aftermath of a nuclear catastrophe that devastated almost half the planet, the survivors are left to cope with the ramifications caused by the tragic destruction.
At the focus of this riveting narrative is a ten-year-old boy named Gee, short for George Elandier Evansen. Despite enduring the nuclear cataclysm eight years prior, his challenging circumstances persist as his father disappears, and his mother resides with a man and his abusive son. Gee grapples with significant hardships, navigating the urban wasteland to find sustenance and valuable items for sale.
His life takes a dramatic turn when Gee uncovers the power to teleport, effectively rescuing him from imminent danger. This newfound ability leads him to the upper levels of an abandoned apartment building, where he discovers valuable provisions, weapons, and medicine. He soon encounters Maria, a young girl whom he saves from a life of abuse. Together, they undertake the daunting task of building a life in a world on the brink of collapse, holding the potential to create a future in the face of the devastation.
The Blue Ink Review commends the post-apocalyptic setting as “an initially strong hook.” However, the absence of an overarching description was noted as a drawback, leaving several questions unanswered. Despite this, the review acknowledges the story’s significant potential. Conversely, Hollywood Book Reviews lauds the protagonist’s empowering determination in the face of a tragic reality, offering an appeal to readers who enjoy fantasy and dystopian genres.
Dare to venture into the thrilling alternate realm where every decision has consequences, and every relationship is a lifeline. Don’t miss the chance to purchase a copy of Gee by D. L. Davies. Available in Kindle and paperback formats on Amazon and other leading bookstores.
