Welcome to Litsy!

Post-apocalyptic poisoned earth. Plot is no longer new - will the exiled warrior survive the monsters/landscape and find a home? - but not one I'm tired off. There is a telepathic cat companion.

Post apocalyptic adventure novel - very tropey.

Has a cat as a main character. Like its optimism and hope.

Check out this old one, straight outta 1952; original title - Star Man's Son.

Smells wonderful! 🤓

Looks like Paul Newman on the cover! 😂

An early Andre Norton (originally published 1952), for my taste her first that really *feels* like an Andre Norton story: it has a young man proving his worth in a science fiction setting (postapocalyptic, in this case), with a multiethnic cast and a telepathic cat. It's a little heavy-handed with moralizing, but has plenty of action too. Not one of her best, but entertaining still.
