About This Novel

Nineteen-year-old Zhao Jie has long despaired of the place called "home" due to his father's years of violence and alcohol addiction. He escaped from the house full of beatings and depression, and struggled to survive in the corners of the city, thinking that he could finally get rid of the shadow of the past, but he did not expect that the gears of fate had already quietly turned to a more cruel trajectory. When the doomsday virus suddenly breaks out, the familiar city in the past becomes a purgatory on earth. Crazy infected people bite all living creatures, order collapses, and civilization is annihilated. Zhao Jie struggled in the chaos, and his only thought was to return to his mother, the only warm harbor in his heart. However, the moment he opened the door, he saw the most unbearable sight - his alcoholic father turned into a bloodthirsty monster, and his mother fell in a pool of blood and became the monster's "food". The broken home and the betrayal of his loved ones completely crushed the last bit of tenderness in the young man. Holding the cold kitchen knife, facing his former father, Zhao Jie only saw the fierceness tempered by the desperate situation in his eyes. Fleeing, fighting, and struggling to survive, he not only has to fight against zombies all over the city, but also faces the darkness and unpredictability of human nature. In this wasteland, the young man who has lost everything can only use hatred and obsession as armor, staggering forward in blood and fire, looking for an answer that does not exist, or a way to hell.
