Quick overview "This crackling road trip through the apocalypse offers thrills all the way to its explosive, satisfying finale." --Publishers Weekly "Relentless, terrifying, and affecting, this book left me feeling like I'd been strapped to the front of the car like Mad Max in Fury Road--not realizing that it was taking me to an emotional ending that would leave me gutted. I've been a huge fan of Skillingstead's work for years, but in The Chaos Function he's outdone himself!" --Daryl Gregory, award-winning author of Spoonbenders For readers of the best-selling novels Sleeping Giants and Dark Matter.
