Ken was never more pleased to hear the sound of hooves as Norman came galloping round the corner. The shig, with its fearsome teeth and horns had Ken cornered and wasnt taking much notice of Colins attempted distraction. But it hadnt reckoned on the intervention of a Centaur. But it must have realised now that it was in for a fi ght, and with a terrifying, ear splitting, screeching bellow it turned and charged at Norman. But Norman was ready for it and turning on the spot, met it full in the face with a lightening pair of hind hooves knocking it half way across the road.

In the aftermath of global devastation, Surviving a Destroyed World with The Johnsons offers a glimpse into the tenacity of the human spirit. Crafted by a retired mechanical engineer with a penchant for the past, this novel bridges the gap between a bygone era and a post-apocalyptic reality. Clive Towle applies a lifetime of engineering knowledge to ponder how humans might overcome such a challenge. From the safety of their shelters, the survivors emerge to a world unrecognizable, now shared with a family of Centaurs born from the chaos of radiation. Together, they forge an unlikely community, proving that unity can flourish in the face of the extraordinary. With the resourcefulness of an engineer and the warmth of a collector’s heart, The Johnsons lead the charge in reclaiming the remnants of a shattered world. Their journey is one of rebirth and camaraderie, a narrative that celebrates the resilience required to rebuild and the unexpected friendships that become the cornerstone of a new society.
