Title: Books, Survival Novels
Post by: yurcarmeean on October 29, 2014, 04:40:21 AM

I'm looking for reading suggestions of creative novels about savvy survival in nature and post-apocalyptic survival. 
Any suggestions for novels similar to:
The Road - Cormac McCarthy
Hatchet - Gary Paulsen
Ender's Game
or movies based on books that I probably don't know are books?
