GLASGOW, 2025. Dr Amanda Maclean is called to treat a young man with a mild fever. Within three hours he dies. The mysterious illness sweeps through the hospital with deadly speed. This is how it begins.

The victims are all men.

Dr Maclean raises the alarm, but the sickness spreads to every corner of the globe. Threatening families. Governments. Countries.

Can they find a cure before it’s too late? Will this be the story of the end of the world – or its salvation?

Compelling, confronting and devastating, The End of Men is the novel that everyone is talking about.

Publisher Review

'I ripped through this. It's pacey, devastating, prescient, compelling and confronting, not only because it's the first thing I've read that even touches the sides of the very real pandemic we're living through, but also because a world without men? It was uncomfortable and fascinating to read about. This is a sure-fire hit, and rightly so!' LAURA JANE WILLIAMS 'Brilliant, prescient and unputdownable' JENNY COLGAN 'A tour de force - a feminist reimagining of society' GILLIAN MCALLISTER 'The most buzzed-about fiction for 2021' SUNDAY TIMES STYLE A fiercely intelligent page-turner... at once thoughtful and highly emotive' PAULA HAWKINS 'The stuff that classics are made of' AJ FINN
