The Passage
by Justin Cronin
The Passage is like a cake: it's got layers... And layers on top of layers. 766 pages - or 36 hours and 52 minutes if you listened like me - of layers to be exact. And also the cake is kind of dreary but you still really enjoy it because it's well made and has enough sweetness to keep you coming back for more.
The book deals with the downfall of civilization by vampire and a third of the way through it jumps to 100 years post apocalypse. Cronin's take on vampires are super creepy and there are loads of action-packed sequences that kept me hooked. It's quite long and while at points I did feel like it should've been split up into two books, overall I really enjoyed the characters and their stories.
