The Girl with All of the Gifts by MR Carey
#1
One of the best written books I've read in a long time.  You are not going to be cheerful at the end of it, but it is well done. Near future, post apocalypse, near London.
In the Tudor Period, Fencing Masters were classified in the Vagrancy Laws along with Actors, Gypsys, Vagabonds, Sturdy Rogues, and the owners of performing bears.

Adding it to the list.

I must be dumb because for the first half of this book I thought it was set somewhere in the states . . . .

But it was well written. I did give it a bit of an eye roll when I realized it was another Zombie tale. But again well written.

But sad. But not the saddest I ever read. I'm still recovering from Soylent Green.

Well-written and sad is a good summation.

In the US? Really? I think you need to get out of the country for a while, someplace nice and rainy.
