Not for the faint of heart, “Dog Blood” by David Moody is a gritty and gruesome look into the world after the Hate takes over, separating the population in two. Those inflicted by this vicious change of heart only feel satisfied when in the throes of violence and attacking the Unchanged. Complete annihilation has become the only thing that matters to people that were once very much like us. While the Unchanged—in an effort to continue some semblance of normal life—have moved into small-sequestered city centers trying to follow the safety in numbers survival rule. Food is scarce; the system has completely broken down and in the few months since the change no place is safe. Danny McCoyne, infected by the Hate, has one challenge and a singular unstoppable goal, which is to find his five-year-old daughter. His single-minded goal has slightly separated him from the pack of killers making him more important to the leaders bent on destruction.

“Dog Blood” is an intense and terrifying ride guaranteed to keep you turning the pages…right after you turn all the lights on.
