critland 's review for:

The Passage by Justin Cronin
4.0

very engaging read. for me, the book was a mix between the terminator and the road: there were elements of totally fantastic combined with moments of pure beautiful in there. i did feel that there were far too many underdeveloped plot lines, however. and despite it being some 800 pages long, at the end i was wishing the author had revisited some characters he introduced early in the novel. i suppose that is how you set the stage for a sequel though, huh?
