Should you read The Dog Stars by Peter Heller? Abu and Obssa give their spoiler-free verdict.
The Dog Stars follows a lone survivor scraping by a few years after a pandemic has wiped out most of humanity, and it's a book for readers who love nature writing and quiet survival stories more than plot. Abu and Obssa describe the prose as unconventional, a stream-of-consciousness style that takes some patience to settle into before its poetry and heartfelt lines start to land. Readers who loved The Road or I Am Legend will find a kindred, grounded take on the genre, one that earns its place in the man-and-his-dog-after-the-apocalypse canon.
