Friday Feature: Plagued

I JUST WANT TO DIE by Nicholas Wolff caught me completely off guard. I thought I would be reading a supernatural story about death, trying to pass off some lesson about life and death. I couldn't have been more wrong. Wolff has mixed horror, sci-fi and drama to create one of the best apocalyptic outbreak scenarios I've ever read!

Not once did I have any idea where the author would take readers, not even when the narrator mentioned the emergency announcements on the radio. I felt like I had been tossed into the abyss, alongside Mark. Wolff has taken the plague subgenre to a new level.

As always,
