The Passage


Ok... this is a crazy big, thick, long book about vampires, non-sparkly kind, that wipe out humanity until, after a hundred years...

*spoiler alert (not really)*

...they die off.

Obviously, not a real complicated plot, which was sort of disappointing since it had potential to explore lots of interesting "collapse of civilization" events, but it starts it (science project goes amok) then skips ahead a hundred years (colony that hunts vampires every night and lives in fear and hoping for rescue).

I finished it... that's something. If you liked The Road, or other apocalyptic stories, you would probably digg it. Just don't have that gushing excitement to get everyone else I know to try it.

So did you like it?

It sounds intriguing. I like post apocalyptic stories...

But your tone seems mediocre on this book. Is that correct?
