Wikipedia article
'Worlds Apart' is a novel written by Joe Haldeman and published in 1983.
Plot summary
'Worlds Apart' is a novel in which two thousand million survivors are prey to a virus that kills everyone over the age of twenty.
Reception
Colin Greenland reviewed 'Worlds Apart' for 'Imagine' magazine, and stated that "It feels perverse to say that a series about the near extinction of the human race seems uneventful, but somehow it does. The futuristic detail is fascinating, but Haldeman relates it in a casual, rambling way that dilutes much of its drama."
