Wow, this is really just a rehash of The Stand, right down to the sex-obsessed traitor named Harold and the deaf kid named Nick.

Was this entire book constructed to set up that "old flame" pun?

"I learned sign language as a lad from my deaf Irish mother." Cool. That would in no way allow this guy to communicate with a child who speaks ASL. Do better, Joe Hill.

I've been enjoying this book, but I have no idea what to make of this latest development. (The kids at the door, for those of you who have read it already.)

"There's something horribly unfair about dying in the middle of a good story, before you have a chance to see how it all comes out. Of course, I suppose everyone always dies in the middle of a good story, in a sense. Your own story. Or the story of your children. Or your grandchildren. Death is a raw deal for narrative junkies."
