A planetary epidemic has ravaged the human race, leaving few survivors. Doctors Shift Bader and Anta Chalthoum, previously isolated underground, lead a small team to the surface to begin rebuilding a shattered world. As they rise to search for the living, they finally see the devastation first-hand, and soon realize that survival was only the beginning of their struggle. A new peril emerges - not a mindless bacterium, but a focused, calculating opponent, determined to destroy those who remain. As new enemies close in, Shift and Anta search for answers, and once again find themselves fighting for survival – this time against an evil that will not be deterred until all of humanity is eradicated.
This is the second book in the series. It picks up where the first one left off with a more persistent, clear, and dangerous opponent for the few remaining humans/survivors to overcome. There are several plot twists,surprises, and edge of the seat action and suspense.
The story is so bad that im angry at myself for not putting it down. Daniel P. wilde may not be the best witter I ever read, but he is one of the best story tellers I came across. The characters are so unprovable that they become real. (Spoiler alert) I can see a friend drunk driving and effin everything up for everybody else. (I can see how the shell survived thousands of people but came down with one drunk driver! The shell and the tubes are on the moon and they can brake with the equivalent of a hamer blow! Anyway I'm not going to spoil this for you, go ahead and try it, then come back and let me know your opinion.
This sequel continues the exciting and creative story line and makes you wonder if the human race can survive. Great characters that you want to love or hate, and a fast-paced story that you don't want to put down.
