Nineteen years after a parasitic fungal outbreak killed the majority of the world's population, thirteen-year-old Ellie, a ward of a military boarding school in one of the few remaining quarantine zones, makes her first trip into the outside world and soon encounters both a violent insurgent group called the Fireflies and the monstrous victims of the infection.

Stick with the game submitted by eknapp on September 6, 2016, 3:14pm Two girls living in a world overrun by zombies sneak out of school in search of trouble.

If I'd realized this was based on a video game I wouldn't have gone near it. Games don't translate well to books or movies in my experience. The Last of Us sure didn't. Both story and art are childishly simple.
