Tahnee Goss and Talon Willis lead completely different lives. She is a teenager living with her divorced mother on Sydney's North Shore. He is a biker who's done hard time and rides with outlaws. But a sudden global catastrophe is about to hurtle them both into a new world where anarchy, lawlessness and death prevail.
Thrown together as the society they both once knew crumbles overnight, Talon and Tahnee flee the empty, burning streets of Sydney to face the perils of enormous bushfires and chaotic shoot-outs with armed gangs of renegades, forced to rely on each other in a battle to survive and find a new haven to restart their lives.

"A basic but effective post-apocalyptic tale"
If you're looking for a basic, bread-and-butter post-apocalyptic tale, Aftermath will likely satisfy. Fischer-Giffin's writing (which alternates between Talon and Tahnee's diary entries to tell the story) is straightforward, engaging and, of critical importance, brisk. Fischer-Giffin keeps the action moving forward at all times, which is exactly the right approach. Most readers of Aftermath likely will already be familiar with the conventions of the post-apocalyptic genre, and Fischer-Giffin hews closely to them in his episodic tale, up to and including the expected climactic battle between the forces trying to rebuild civilization...

"a great read"
I really enjoyed every page of this book, from the explosive beginning to the dramatic ending. :) I liked how it was written in a diary format, as you still felt you were living the events, not just ‘reading’ about them (which I usually hate.) I thought the book rang true of what life really would be like ‘after the end of the world’. Brian doesn’t glamorise any events or ideas, which I appreciated. (Thanks Hollywood.) Anyway, a great book that I would definitely recommend.
