Do you enjoy chilling, post-apocalyptic stories set in winter? Check out Moon of the Crusted Snow by Waubgeshig Rice!
When a power outage occurs, phone service goes out, and food shipments stop, fear and panic start to build in a small Anishinaabe community in northern Canada. With news of similar issues happening elsewhere and people wandering in from collapsed, southern cities, our protagonist, Evan Whitesky, and his community try to survive the harsh winter. At under 220 pages, this short read is not to be missed!
While Moon of the Crusted Snow can stand on its own, a long-awaited sequel, Moon of the Turning Leaves, was published in 2023 and follows familiar characters twelve years later.
