Suffer the Children by Craig DiLouie
5.0
Just finished this fantastic #horrornovel from Craig Dilouie.
One day, no different from the thousands of days that make up our lives, all the children who have not yet gone through puberty drop dead. It begins as a wave from the west that sweeps across the globe, driving fear and sorrow ahead of it in a relentless tide. All the children of the world succumb, none are spared.
Days pass as the world tries to grapple with this new awful reality.
Then, one night, the children reawaken. But they reawaken with an insatiable thirst. Only human blood returns the children to the way they were before the event. And as the world’s supply of readily available blood dwindles, parents are forced to make incredibly difficult choices for their children. And the children themselves are changing, in absolutely terrible ways.
This is the best horror novel I have read this year and it’s one of my all time favorites. Truly horrifying and almost impossible to put down. Highly recommended!
