It's not quite as good as Parasite, but it keeps up the drama and intrigue. It was another quick read for me, despite being quite thick, but it struggled to get to the point. I think much of what happened could have been condensed and nothing would have been lost. That being said, it was still a great sequel to the first and still makes a great set up to the last book in the trilogy.

What makes this book so good and so scary is that it's totally believable. Having people willing put generically modified parasites into their bodies so they don't have to take medication or monitor their own health is not a far fetches idea. What I love is that we are getting the POV of a parasite and the full on collapse of the world.

2.5/5
I’m now realizing the only reason I liked the first one so much was the shock value.
The plot was seemingly not thought out completely, the characters were annoying and under developed and the dialogue was cheesy. It was entirely too long for the storyline and the last 100 pages or so were the biggest let down after the first book where sh*t hit the fan in the craziest way possible.
I don’t think I’ll read the third book and if I do it will be like 4 years from now since that’s how long it took me to get to this one.

Love this completely unique take on a zombie apocalypse! There's believable science here alongside Grant's always strong characterization and plot, and I'm eager to read the third when it comes out.
