about the book
In the wastelands that remain after the apocalypse…
Subject T—Thresher—never expected to be free from his life as an experiment, but now that he’s escaped into the outside world—a world transformed after the Yellowstone volcano erupted—he’s determined to never go back.
Life as a genetically modified human never prepared him to face the dangers beyond the Facility, and he’ll only survive if the fascinating outsider, Mako, agrees to bring him along on his journey.
Mako isn’t sure what to make of the wanderer he finds, except that the naive man can’t survive the environmental toxicity ravaging the landscape. That’s not Mako’s problem—not when there are warring tribes of survivors to maneuver, old enemies to confront, and an abducted sister to find.
Yet when Thresher reveals clues leading Mako closer to his destination, he realizes that this wanderer—this experiment—changes everything.
The two wanderers must navigate more than just the inherent dangers of a post-apocalyptic world. A disease pulls what remains of society apart at the seams, and the remaining tribes are fractured, constantly competing for water and resources that will allow the strongest of them to rule. But two sharks might have the best chance to survive—and bring the world with them.

reviews for sharks of the wasteland
I have read very few apocalyptic (let alone sci-fi) books in my life. They are not one of my favorite genres to read, but I found the synopsis of this book to be very intriguing. The cover art also attracted me to the book. I found the novel’s content to be quite interesting and memorable.
Raised in the wilds of countless library stacks, Gwendolyn N. Nix has forged her skills in writing and science in the shark-infested waters of Belize, by researching neural proteins, inducing evolutionary pressures in green algae, and through the limitless horizons of her own imagination. A born seeker of adventure, she saw her first beached humpback whale on a windy day in New York, met a ghost angel in a Paris train station, and had Odin answer her prayers on a mountain in Scotland. Her short fiction has appeared in StarShip Sofa and The Sisterhood of the Blade anthology. The Falling Dawn is her first novel. She lives in Missoula, MT.
