#8 -- The Eleventh Plague

This book by Jeff Hirsch is set in the future. War and a flu-type plague have killed two-thirds of the American population. Those that are left must live with no electricity, homes, and only the food they can find in the wild. Stephen and his family live off of the land. Finding a very old can of peaches becomes a feast for them. Then Stephen's father gets hurt, and Stephen is captured by a group of people and taken back to their village. It turns out that these people have formed their own community, and they take in Stephen. Will he fit in?  Will he be safe there?  You will have to read the book to find out!!

This was a really good book that kept me reading. I couldn't put it down until I found out how things ended for Stephen.
