idk bot that but be interesting to see another prospective outside of the US
The Rain is set in a world where a virus carried by the rain wipes out nearly the entire population of Scandinavia. In true YA fashion, only young people have seemed to survive this event, and now they must band together. Here’s the full synopsis.
The world as we know it has ended. Six years after a brutal virus carried by the rain wipes out nearly the entire population of Scandinavia, two Danish siblings emerge from the safety of their bunker to find all remnants of civilisation gone. Soon they join a group of other young survivors and together they set out on a danger-filled quest through abandoned Scandinavia, searching for any sign of life.
Set free from their collective past and societal rules, the group has the freedom to be who they want to be. In their struggle for survival, they discover that even in a post-apocalyptic world there’s still love, jealousy, and many of the coming of age dilemmas they thought they’d left behind with the disappearance of the world they once knew.
hmm. that could be really cool. you're right, it will be interesting to see the apocalypse from a different cultural viewpoint. maybe they will create a utopia from the ruins of the old world.
