Swan Song is a skillfully crafted, cleverly executed, often terrifying, and highly entertaining book. You cant read Swan Song without drawing comparing to The Stand, both epic books. Personally, I still lean towards The Stand as my favorite, maybe because I read it first and it left a big impression. 
Both essential reads for fans of the post-apocalyptic genre.
