Y: The Last Man meets The Girl With All the Gifts in Gretchen Felker-Martin's Manhunt, an explosive post-apocalyptic novel that follows trans women and men on a grotesque journey of survival.

Beth and Fran spend their days traveling the ravaged New England coast, hunting feral men and harvesting their organs in a gruesome effort to ensure they'll never face the same fate.

Robbie lives by his gun and one hard-learned motto: other people aren't safe.

After a brutal accident entwines the three of them, this found family of survivors must navigate murderous TERFs, a sociopathic billionaire bunker brat, and awkward relationship dynamics―all while outrunning packs of feral men, and their own demons.

Manhunt is a timely, powerful response to every gender-based apocalypse story that failed to consider the existence of transgender and non-binary people, from a powerful new voice in horror.

Thrilling action with a satisfying ending

5 Sterne

The book features a world where people with testosterone get an incurable disease that makes them kill & eat all estrogen-having people. Meanwhile trans people are being persecuted for either having testosterone or wanting testosterone by the TERFs. I am not surprised at all that the Wachowiski sisters decided to make this into a movie. This is gonna be an AMAZING one.

It also ends in a very satisfying manner (with a cameo featuring the most famous TERF alive). I really enjoyed reading it especially the day after the 2024 elections. I am squeamish about reading sex scenes in books and this one has a LOT of them.

So good

5 Sterne

Let me be clear, it's brutal both in the sense of blood and gore but also that you're gonna watch a lot of people who could be good chose to do fucked up shit instead.

That said this is one of the most gripping amazing books I've read in a while, and it feels entirely too close to home with the amount of cruel anti-trans laws flying around, but it's 100% worth the read.
