I recommend "The Glory of Nesiril". The setting of this novel is a fantasy-epic fantasy genre. The protagonist is a cold-blooded, cautious, and heartless pure mage. There is no female protagonist, and there is no acting pig to eat tiger throughout the entire process. There is no explosion of life and death, only steady progress. There are no strong enemies everywhere. The protagonist is always someone else's strong enemy, and he is wholeheartedly advancing towards the glory of Nesiril. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
If you're caught outdoors in a storm, the first thing is to find shelter. It could be under a large tree (though beware of lightning), or better yet, a natural overhang or a man - made structure like a shed. Stay away from bodies of water as there could be flash floods.
At 16, I endured rape. It was by a relative. I was in shock for a long time. I didn't know how to face my family. I ran away from home for a while. But I realized I needed help. I reached out to a local women's shelter. They provided me with shelter, counseling, and legal advice. It's been a long road, but I'm determined to get my life back on track.
Another option could be 'Educated' by Tara Westover. It shares some similarities as it's about a person's journey growing up in a rather challenging family situation and finding their way out, much like the idea of surviving home in the given novel.
One of the best is 'I Am Not Your Negro'. It's not a traditional survival story in the sense of physical survival but rather a survival of a people's identity and history. It's based on James Baldwin's unfinished manuscript, exploring race in America through his powerful and prescient words.
In 'Surviving the Game' short story, it might be about characters facing various challenges and their struggle to stay alive. Maybe it has elements of survival in a harsh environment, like a jungle or a post - apocalyptic world.
