HTML:A terrifying thriller that will crawl beneath your skin . . . and leave fresh blood on every page.
??Fraught with tension . . . Invasion of the Body Snatchers meets The Hot Zone.???Rocky Mountain News
Across America a mysterious disease is turning ordinary people into raving, paranoid murderers who inflict brutal horrors on strangers, themselves, and even their own families.
Working under the government??s shroud of secrecy, CIA operative Dew Phillips crisscrosses the country trying in vain to capture a live victim. With only decomposing corpses for clues, CDC epidemiologist Margaret Montoya races to analyze the science behind this deadly contagion. She discovers that these killers all have one thing in common??they??ve been contaminated by a bioengineered parasite, shaped by a complexity far beyond the limits of known science.
Meanwhile Perry Dawsey??a hulking former football star now resigned to life as a cubicle-bound desk jockey??awakens one morning to find several mysterious welts growing on his body. Soon Perry finds himself acting and thinking strangely, hearing voices . . . he is infected.
The fate of the human race may well depend on the bloody war Perry must wage with his own body, because the parasites want something from him, something that… (mer)
Listened to the Podiobooks version. Loved Scary Perry and would've loved to see him a bit more, while Margaret Montoya was the most annoying doctor ever encountered in a story... would've loved to see her bite the dust. A sign of very good writer to me is when he/she can create characters that you can get attached to or cannot wait to see die a horrible death. ( )
I admit that this book was like reading a romance novel for horror fans. The plot was thin in a few places but the pace was great. I ripped through it in a day and sometimes it's just great to have a book that is all about fun and oh that's really gross. No thinking required, just get on the ride.
This book is for horror fans but I think it has some science fiction and thriller appeal. ( )
I managed to start the sequel on the same day that I finished this one. If you don't like gore or blood, definately read with caution. A very interesting story. The fact that you "witness" different things happening at different places at either different or the same times, definately keeps you on your toes. ( )
pretty good...a slow starter but I liked the concept of the triangles. It got a little slow towards the end when all the military stuff came in. After reading the excerpt of "Contagious" I may skip it. Looks to be more of the same, but with more military, since the triangles are now, well, infecting others. ( )
