Science Fiction & Fanstasy

I didn’t want to put this book down. A military experiment with an exotic virus turns the subjects into vampire-like killers that overrun the earth. Our only hope is an incredibly special and similarly infected young girl who calls on different people over the subsequent generations of survivors to help her fulfill her destiny. The writing is extremely well done, very literary, and quite frightening. Cronin has created a masterpiece of post-apocalyptic fiction. —Nici

Half-werewolf, half-vampire Riley Jenson is back. Strong, smart, and tough as nails, she needs every ounce of strength she’s got as she battles her inner demons, a very nasty murderer, and an old enemy who has it in for her. With a heroine to root for, breakneck action, and steamy tension, this is one hot summer read! —Flannery
