Okay. Doing some research for my next NaNo novel.
Basically, we have been wiped out and a new group of people/creatures has taken our place (this will be a fantasy YA book, if that makes any difference). The only thing that remains of our 'history' are several books. Only they aren't nonfiction, but regular fiction books that are mistaken to real life stuff.
The books need to be ones that most people would at least know the subject/recognize the titles.
I was thinking Planet of the Apes or Animal Farm, though I have not read either. Does Animal Farm paint humans badly? or does it just have animals in it?
Don't need books about wars (as that is not a new concept to these people), but more like the whole planet is jacked up and deserved to be destroyed. Maybe even some scifi stuff, so this collection of books can be gathered from the same person (and so our society seems way more advanced than it was).
Umm...does that make sense to anyone?
