PASSAGE, THE by Justin Cronin - SIGNED FIRST EDITION BOOKSee all titles by Justin Cronin.
"It happened fast. Thirty-two minutes for one world to die, another to be born."
First, the unthinkable: a security breach at a secret U.S. government facility unleashes the monstrous product of a chilling military experiment. Then, the unspeakable: a night of chaos and carnage gives way to sunrise on a nation, and ultimately a world, forever altered. All that remains for the stunned survivors is the long fight ahead and a future ruled by fear—of darkness, of death, of a fate far worse.
As civilization swiftly crumbles into a primal landscape of predators and prey, two people flee in search of sanctuary. FBI agent Brad Wolgast is a good man haunted by what he's done in the line of duty. Six-year-old orphan Amy Harper Bellafonte is a refugee from the doomed scientific project that has triggered apocalypse. He is determined to protect her from the horror set loose by her captors. But for Amy, escaping the bloody fallout is only the beginning of a much longer odyssey—spanning miles and decades—towards the time and place where she must finish what should never have begun.
With The Passage, award-winning author Justin Cronin has written both a relentlessly suspenseful adventure and an epic chronicle of human endurance in the face of unprecedented catastrophe and unimaginable danger. Its inventive storytelling, masterful prose, and depth of human insight mark it as a crucial and transcendent work of modern fiction.
The Passage by Justin CroninReviewed by JohnJuly 9 - Have you ever wished that you had picked up
that first printing of John Dunning's Booked To
Die when it could be had for a mere twenty
bucks, or maybe one of these at cover price: Sue Grafton's A is for Alibi, James Lee Burke's Neon Rain, Michael
Connelly's Black Echo, Stephen King's Carrie or The Stand - or maybe a full set of Harry
Potter first editions?
Well it's not to
late to get in on a good deal. The book is Justin Cronin's The Passage. We had the unique privilege of
visiting with Justin Cronin late last week, and found him to be an engaging,
articulate, and wonderfully charming man who signed stack after stack of books
for us late into the evening. We caught up with him after he had already done
another major signing, and countless media interviews. To quote him, "it's been
quite a ride!"
With The Passage, he has written both a relentlessly
suspenseful adventure and an epic chronicle of human endurance in the face of
unprecedented catastrophe and unimaginable danger. Its inventive storytelling,
masterful prose, and depth of human insight mark it as a crucial and
transcendent work of modern fiction. Having already moved into later printings,
signed first editions of this exciting new book have already shown considerable
appreciation.
Get yours today and you too will join the club of those
who got it early!
