I really like Aguirre's Enclave series...yes its another dystopian/apocolyptic young adult novel but its really good and very different.  I have read "Enclave" and another short called "Endurance".  I was halfway through "Outpost" and without that (physical) book when I started reading "Foundation" on my kindle.  "Foundation" is very short. A casual reader may not want to spend the .99 cents to buy this one but if you really like the Razorland series, it is worth the investment.  "Foundation" tells of the events that lead to the end of the world as we know it, through the eyes of a teen boy named Robin.  After a deadly conatmination sparks off a the spreading of a destructive virus.  Robin's family is locked into an apartment complex with several other families.  At first even the individual apartments are sealed off but as the story progresses the families begin to mingle in the hallways.  Pre-allocated food is still being delivered to the residents so at this stage of the disaster the world is still functioning...somewhat.  "Foundation" quickly tells how fast the world crumbles.  Nothing in "Foundation" is going to change how you view the series but it was way to spend a little time in this world again.
