《使女的故事》 遇上 《野女孩》 ——這部顛覆類型的小說,講述一名少女逃離恐怖邪教後,卻發現外面的世界已遭病毒末日吞噬。

艾格妮絲深愛她的家鄉紅溪——那裡有寧靜的陽光早晨、塵土飛揚的道路,還有她的上帝。她無微不至地照顧年幼的弟妹,並嚴格遵守小鎮的律法。但她不知道的是,紅溪其實是一個邪教,由一個自稱先知的瘋子掌控。

直到艾格妮絲遇見外來少年丹尼,她開始質疑什麼是罪、什麼不是罪。她的弟弟以西結若沒有她每月用物資換來的胰島素就會死,儘管藥物在鎮上被視為違禁品。她救弟弟是犯罪嗎?她的妹妹貝絲夢想著紅溪以外的世界,也是犯罪嗎?

隨著先知變得越來越危險,艾格妮絲明白她必須帶著以西結逃離,把其他人——包括貝絲——留在身後。但外面的世界同樣不安全:一場病毒大流行正以驚人的速度吞噬人口。當艾格妮絲踏上征途,她與病毒之間產生了神祕的連結。但在一個信仰、奇蹟與殘酷早已難以區分的世界裡,艾格妮絲能否在拯救家人與拯救世界之間做出選擇?

Michael ★★★★★

The way the novel jumps between Agnes's past in the cult and the present wasteland kept me turning pages late into the night. The viral apocalypse part is terrifyingly real, but it's her quiet strength that really sticks with you.

Jason H. ★★★★★

The viral apocalypse world-building feels terrifyingly real, and Agnes's escape from the cult kept me turning pages late into the night. I loved how the two storylines—the cult and the virus—slowly collide without feeling forced. This is the kind of dystopian novel that stays with you.

Benjamin G. ★★★★★

I was hooked from the first chapter—the escape from the cult is so tense, and the way the viral apocalypse unfolds in the Outside world feels chillingly real. The pacing kept me turning pages past midnight.
