"The Passage" by Justin Cronin (766 Pages)


In this stunning, post-apocalyptic novel, Justin Cronin brings about the end of the world in the form of a virus: changing the infected into super-strong, super-fast beings who will stop at nothing to consume flesh. Injected with a revolutionary form of the virus that makes her immortal, Amy Bellafonte witnesses all the carnage and spends one hundred years wandering the country. When she bands together with a group of people searching for a safe place, secrets are uncovered that may ultimately save the world, and Amy and her friends may sacrifice everything to stop the infected. A heart-stopping thriller not for the faint of heart, I couldn't put this book down until I knew the ending. I strongly recommend it if you're comfortable with lengthy books.
