This is the story of a teacher, a scientist, a soldier, and an amazing girl, and the relationships they have, form, and destroy. It's also a story about fungus, zombies, and the end of the world. And it's the origin story of a new one. It's very sad and oddly hopeful, and quite well done. (  ) tldegray | Sep 21, 2018 |  I don't care for zombies, but I loved this book. It is that good. (  ) susanramirez | Sep 17, 2018 | Well. If you like the television series, "The Walking Dead", you will recognize the theme in this novel. Instead of "walkers" we have "hungries". The big difference is that there are a few half human/half hungry children who will carry the future. It is a good, if gory, story. The main point of the novel is that humanity must consider the ramifications of their choices, and that love is transformative. (  ) hemlokgang | Aug 27, 2018 | Is a great book... The narration has a very good peace and it allow you to get into and also do not want to stop... The characters have a very good development and they do not take decisions that are completely unexpected with them... It follows their own logic and they assume their mistakes. Really like it. ( ) CaroPi | Aug 9, 2018 | I couldn't read this fast enough. Carey takes a basic post-apocalypse road trip to survival and fills it with great characters and an ending right out of Twilight Zone at its peak. Excellent!
