A review by vdvanl
The Passage by Justin Cronin

4.0

3.5, rounded to 4. The first 1/3 was absolutely gripping. I found the effectively all-new cast of characters introduced after that to be less well-drawn and really difficult to care about at the same level. It was also excessively long and felt like too much of a pastiche of other books that I kept wishing I was reading instead.
