Justin Cronin’s The Passage is an epic, thrilling saga that combines elements of post-apocalyptic horror, dystopian fiction, and a deep, emotional narrative. The story begins with a government experiment gone horribly wrong—an attempt to create a race of superhuman soldiers using a virus that transforms people into vampiric, monstrous creatures. The experiment’s failure leads to a global pandemic, wiping out most of humanity and leaving survivors to fight against these vicious “virals.”

Grady Hendrix’s The Final Girl Support Group is a hilarious and thrilling twist on the slasher genre, blending horror, humor, and suspense in a way that only Hendrix can.

These women, who are all “final girls” from various real life like horror scenarios, have been through unspeakable horrors, but their true struggle comes when someone begins picking them off one by one.
