Helpful Score: 4
This book starts off with a great premise and grabs you right away. The story gets a little too convoluted and has an ending that I thought could've been better. HOWEVER if you like horror stories in the same vein as Stephen King, then this book IS for you.

PBS has made me a Bentley Little fan. This is probably the third or fourth of his books I've read and I came away a little disappointed. Even witches and the walking dead couldn't keep me interested for a long read. The flashbacks were by far the best parts of the book.
Helpful Score: 2
really good, though a bit slow in the very beginning

If you are looking for a good horror book..this is it!!The dead begin to walk for miles and it is up to one man to find out why. His father is one of the walkers.
Helpful Score: 2
As with all of Bentley Little's books, it starts out great and grabs you right away. The story has great build up and tension but the ending is always anticlimatic.
A horror story and an unusual one
Helpful Score: 1
Bentley Little is the best. An edge of the seat page turner that kept me reading all day and night.
Good horror story, kind of like zombies but not exactly what they are--good reading.
Bentley Little is not for everybody. This was a good book in the way of you have no idea what is happening because it could be anything sort of way.
Creepy, creepy, creepy. Great zombie story. Another good one from Bently Little
Any fan of old school Stephen King will LOVE this author!!
Maybe my expectations were too high after reading many glowing reviews. The story DID grab my interest right away but somewhere around 3/4 of the way through, as I got close to the big finale... the tempo changed. The plot got a little muddled and I found the ending to be anti-climatic. Still not a bad read, but not Bentley's best.
Written well.
This was a good Bentley Little book. I have liked all of his books and this one was really good. Has a great ending. Spooky and a pretty quick read.
Great! Like all his books!
not the best of Bentley Little but interesting plot
Loved it!
