Description

“A cross between The Hot Zone and ’Salem’s Lot.”
—Entertainment Weekly

“I cannot wait to see where Del Toro and Hogan take us next.”
—James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of Bloodline

The wait is over! Guillermo del Toro, one of Hollywood’s most popular and imaginative storytellers (Pan’s Labyrinth, Hellboy) and Hammett Award-winning thriller writer Chuck Hogan (Prince of Thieves) return with The Fall—the second blood-chilling volume in their critically acclaimed, New York Times bestselling Strain Trilogy. The Fall picks up where The Strain left off—with a vampiric infection spreading like wildfire across America as a small band of heroes struggles to save the dwindling human race from the vampire plague. Horror fiction and dark fantasy fans will be swept up in this epic story that bestselling author Nelson DeMille describes as “Bram Stoker meets Stephen King meets Michael Crichton.”

    Starts a bit slow compared to the previous book, but we'll worth the read. Can't wait to read the final book.

    I'm debating about whether or not to go on to the third book. This was a little better than book one, but the writing is just so-so. Not sure if finishing the trilogy is worth my time when there are better books out there like Justin Cronin's book The Passage.
  • Read it. You'll love it too.

    This story is so good. I can't find words good enough to describe it. It's more than a vampire story. The characters are so intense. I love this story.
  • Captivating

    Read "The Strain" and quickly downloaded "The Fall.". It's a page turner that will keep you wanting more. It's not going to win any literary awards but it's for sure entertaining. I can't wait for the next book in this series to be released!!

    Great read. Good relatable characters. Not too sure about the nuclear aspect but we will see how some of the loose ends are tied up in the third installment. Del toro and Logan are a seemingly singular intertwined mind. The story flowed with ease, humorous at times and heart wrenchingly unbearable at others. Highly recommended after reading the strain of course.
