Synopsis:
Since the beginning of mankind, civilizations have fallen: the Romans, the Greeks, the Aztecs…and now us. Huge earthquakes rock the world. Cities are destroyed. But something even more awful is happening: An ancient evil has been unleashed, and it’s turning everyday people into hunters, killers, and crazies.
This is the world Aries, Clementine, Michael, and Mason are living in—or rather, trying to survive. Each is fleeing unspeakable horror, from murderous chaos to brutal natural disasters, and each is traveling the same road in a world gone mad. Amid the throes of the apocalypse and clinging to love and meaning wherever it can be found, these four teens are on a journey into the heart of darkness—and to find each other and a place of safety.
I thought the story was good but I'm still not sure why certain people went psycho killer in the book. It wasn't necessarily explained very well.I also didn't like how many points of view there were. Why did the author have to put five of them in there. It was unnecessary and confusing.
I enjoyed how action packed the book was along with the fact that the characters weren't written as bring invulnerable.
This is going to sound weird but I liked how graphic the book was when it came to descriptions of how the baggers killed people and what they did with the bodies. I appreciated the fact that the author made it seem so raw and terrifying. She didn't sugar coat those aspects of the story. It made the story seem more realistic.
