They are among the few in the world, as far as they know, to have survived a devastating virus that has swept over the planet. Their lives turned upside down, Nico realizes that his superb marksmanship and cool head mean he is destined to be his father's protector, even though he is still only a boy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Willem Storm, though not a fighter, is both a thinker and a leader, a wise and compassionate man with a vision for a new community that survivors will rebuild from the ruins. And so Amanzi is founded, drawing Storm's \"homeless and tempest-tost\"--starting with Melinda Swanevelder, whom they rescue from brutal thugs; Hennie Fly, with his vital Cessna plane; Beryl Fortuin and her ragtag group of orphans; and Domingo, the man with the tattooed hand, whom Nico immediately recognizes as someone you want on your side. And then Sofia Bergman arrives, the most beautiful girl Nico has ever seen, who changes everything. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e So the community grows, and with each step forward, as resources increase, so do the challenges they must face--not just from the attacks of biker brigands, but also from within. Nico undergoes an extraordinary rite of passage in this brand new world, testing his loyalty to the limits. Looking back later in life, he recounts the traumatic events that led to the greatest rupture of all--the murder of the person he loves most. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Propulsively readable, \u003ci\u003eFever\u003c\/i\u003e is a gripping epic of humanity striving for a noble vision against its basest impulses.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDeon Meyer\u003c\/b\u003e is the internationally acclaimed, prizewinning author of eleven thrillers, including \u003ci\u003eIcarus\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCobra\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSeven Days\u003c\/i\u003e, and the Barry Award-winning \u003ci\u003eThirteen Hours\u003c\/i\u003e.
