About the Book

Longlisted for the Theakstons Old Peculiar Crime Novel of the Year Magnus McFall was a comic on the brink of his big break when the world came to an end. Now, he is a man on the run and there is nothing to laugh about. Thrown into unwilling partnership with an escaped convict, Magnus flees the desolation of London to make the long journey north, clinging to his hope that the sickness has not reached his family on their remote Scottish island. He finds himself in a landscape fraught with danger, fighting for his place in a world ruled by men, like his fellow traveller Jeb - practical men who do not let pain or emotions interfere with getting the job done. This is a world with its own justice, and new rules. Where people, guns and food are currency. Where survival is everything. Death is a Welcome Guest defies you to put it down, and leaves you with questions that linger in the mind long after you read the last page.

Review :
Praise for A LOVELY WAY TO BURN - . A terrifying journey into the possible, this is dystopia for today. Feral, frightening and fascinating, A LOVELY WAY TO BURN gripped and chilled me in equal measure - Val McDermid Louise Welsh writes elegantly and has visualised London in extremis with immense and detailed clarity. It is all very exciting, and there are two more volumes to come - Literary Review I'm now hooked. Waiting for the next. - Jennifer Byrne for Australian Women's Weekly Welsh concocts a future work that could be no more than a year or two away: tainted air, widespread ill health masked by medication, pillars of society running amok in a final gesture of disgust a what they had became part of...Give yourself the cold shivers. - Country Style Magazine Welsh has had highs and lows among her books; this is one of her best. - The Daily Telegraph - Sydney Think P. D. James and THE CHILDREN OF MEN...Welsh still has her edge. - The Saturday Age, Melbourne
