There was some discussion on Paul's Facebook about this book. It was quite a long thread and it got heated. Sadly it died out when Lisa and I got involved.

What got heated? Whether or not he was a rip off of RJ? There were some obvious similarities but in no way did I consider it to be plagiaristic. At least your wet-blanketness doused a fire instead of a good time for once.

I found this little gem at a Fred Meyers a while back and finally started on it just the other day. So far it's pretty creepy and mysterious.

Here's an excerpt taken from the back of the book:

The Passage:

An epic and gripping tale of catastrophe and survival, The Passage is the story of Amy—abandoned by her mother at the age of six, pursued and then imprisoned by the shadowy figures behind a government experiment of apocalyptic proportions. But Special Agent Brad Wolgast, the lawman sent to track her down, is disarmed by the curiously quiet girl and risks everything to save her. As the experiment goes nightmarishly wrong, Wolgast secures her escape—but he can’t stop society’s collapse. And as Amy walks alone, across miles and decades, into a future dark with violence and despair, she is filled with the mysterious and terrifying knowledge that only she has the power to save the ruined world.

I finally started this a while ago. Thanks for mentioning it here. I'm enjoying it.

I am peeved that Cronin stole my real-world doomsday scenario plans. I live in the shadow of the San Jacinto mountains. Wind turnbines everywhere generating power. It's the middle of the desert but I also know several locations where springs bubble up out of the ground. Usually over the San Andreas Fault.

I always seem to enjoy a book more if I recognize locations in it.

You sonofabitch!

Language, Ma'am!!! :nono:

After all these years...it's nice to have Harry back.

Now I'm reading Wet Work by Philip Nutman. Oh...what a disgust!

I got an Amazon gift card from Amazon from my son so I bought the entire Zombie Fallout series by Mark Tufo for my Kindle. I have fallen in love with this series.

Finally bought a Nook HD+ last week. Grabbed a bunch of stuff from Gutenberg. Getting reacquainted with Alexandre Dumas Pere and rolling through some E R Burroughs.
