Even though I read this book in the summer, it deserves its own post.
As I started to hear about this book I knew it was one I had to own. I follow a few different book blogs and they were given early release copies to review, and the reviews were amazing.
I put this book down as one of the best books I have ever read.
It is long (766 pages), but soooo good.
On the back cover:
First, the unthinkable: a security breach at a secret U.S. government facility unleashes the monstrous product of a chilling military experiment. Then, the unspeakable: a night of chaos and carnage gives way to sunrise on a notion, and ultimately a world, forever altered. All that remains for the the stunned survivors is the long fight ahead and a future rules by fear - of darkness, of death, of fate far worse.
As civilization swiftly crumbles into a primal landscape of predators and prey, two people flee in search of sanctuary. FBI agent Brad Wolgast is a good man haunted by what he's done in the ling of duty. Six-year-old Amy Harper Bellafonte is a refugee from the doomed scientific project that has triggered apocalypse. Wolgast is determined to protect her from the horror set loose by her captors, but for Amy, escaping the bloody fallout is only the beginning of a much longer odyssey - spanning miles and decades - towards the time and place where she must finish what should never have begun.
I really, really liked this book. Even though it s pretty far fetched, it is so well written I actually believed this could happen.
If you are looking for a fantastic thriller novel - this is it!
Rating: 5 out of 5.
