Truly one of the best books I have read this year. The attention to detail was excellent. The plot was strong and I felt secure getting attached to characters. The book was eventful enough that I never got bored. If you enjoy sci-fi novel of epic proportions, this is it. A wonderful mix of The Stand and some weirdly unique version of War of the Worlds. I also loved the setting in rural PA - so superior to the generic major city background. The author really knew his geography well and placed the reader directly in the story (and often into the path of a rampaging alien!).This book will be one of my top recommendations to my sci-fi buddies this year. Can't wait to start the second.
