In the year 2035, all that is left of humanity lives in the Shell. After ecological disasters have nearly destroyed the Earth, twenty-six survivors are imprisoned in a sterile enclosure built by an alien race. Their only hope lies within randomly brief time-portals into the recent past, where Pete and the Six are abducting children to increase their gene pool

Review of 'After the Fall, Before the Fall, During the Fall' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Fascinating time travel/ecological apocalypse novel which is very postanthropocene at heart. The narrative winds and weaves through different timelines and I can't help but feel that the blurb gives too much away, lessens the impact of the reveal. Wonderful prose, though.
