John Christopher Wells Books

    Sam Youd, widely recognized under the pseudonym John Christopher, was a prolific author whose imagination spanned numerous genres, from speculative fiction to gothic romance. His narratives often delve into the collapse of civilization and the dynamics of human relationships under duress, exploring the darker aspects of human nature and societal fragility. With a keen interest in 'what happens between people,' Youd masterfully examined human behavior in the face of apocalyptic scenarios, cementing his legacy as a unique storyteller of resilience and vulnerability.
