Homeless grabbed my attention immediately. It's a dystopian story, and one not so far into the future. What fascinated me the most was the concept of why the world has crumbled. Homes and buildings have become invaded by something beyond human. Those who don't at first comprehend what is happening fall prey to these shadowed and bladed creatures. Those that heed the flow of information, though it is beyond belief, abandon their homes. Still this is not enough...the reader experiences the destruction of civilisation via this insidious invasion through the main character Mitch. He's a decent soul, willing to help those who need it but all to aware of those happy to take what they can, even if it means killing. Along the way we meet other characters, Cori a Shadow Runner and Darrin an Expressman. Both characters are believable and realistic but because the story is through Mitch's eyes, we don't get to experience the other characters in depth, but apart from this, Homeless is a worthwhile read.I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.
