Citation: Doeden, M. (2015). Can you survive a virus outbreak?: An interactive doomsday adventure. Capstone.
As the fatal “Blood Fever” virus sweeps across the globe, this book poses an ominous question: will you survive?
This choose-your-own adventure empowers readers with the choice to influence one of fifteen endings. Evoking the ‘what would you do if…” conversations shared amongst friends, the book (comprised mostly of dialogue) should keep uncertain readers entertained with fast-paced storytelling and to explore the different routes the narrative may take.
Given the gravity of the COVID-19 pandemic (which occurred after the publication of the book), the subject matter of this particular entry in the Can You Survive series feels to be in poor taste – but could be useful as a recommendation for readers who only enjoy high-stakes and dramatic books.
