so its been kinda long since i last updated...haha
anyway i just got my final year results and i got my law degree...woot!
been working at HSBC for the a month already..works been really fun..
i'll just do a short Review on a book i finished reading awhile back...
a prior warning..i bought the extended and uncut edition and its a thick(1000pg plus thick..hehe)
but i can say with total certainty its was one of the best book's I've ever read, and the thickness didn't bother me at all..it was worth the time...
the story starts out straight at the start of a virus being accidentally released..
and from their a chain of of events starts and the death of 3/4 of the population happens due to a government made virus..
King does a brilliant job of taking us through the lives and things that the main characters experience before and during the outbreak of the plague..
this is king at his best giving us horror not in blood and gore, but with the worst kind of horror
known to man FEAR...
and from then as the plague sub sides slowly we see the main characters who have some how been immune to the deadly plague start to fight for survival and regroup..its the rebuilding of society and structure..and in the mids of this another twist so deadly and supernatural in nature involving an old lady the vessel of light and a strange man the vessel of the dark..
as these survivors chose their sides two groups face off..in a final stand for humanity..
this book is experience like no other..
A beautiful read..a master class in horror/apocalyptic style stories..
pick it up if you have not read it..get the extende edition if u've read the regular edition..
in my opinion the little bits that are included here just gives the story a more whole feel to it..
Cheers!
