Review: Compelling story

Being a fan of Scalzi I pre-ordered the short story Unlocked: An Oral History of Haden’s Syndrome as soon as I became aware of it’s existence. I spent an hour reading it this evening and really enjoyed myself. Scalzi slowly builds up a compelling, and frightening world where a plague reshapes humanity. Throughout reading Unlocked I was constantly reminded of World War Z, specifically the audio edition. I hope that one with the same production value is created for Unlocked. I did not read the first chapter of Lock In, the full length book that Unlocked is teasing, but simply because I did not want to spoil anything. I did pre-order it, however.
