Review: I enjoyed the way the book morphed into the supernatural aspects!

I found that Michael Stark has created the island as the world for these survivors of The Fever, the apocalyptic disease that could destroy the world. But what about the demon-creatures--how do they come into play? I find it intriguing. I believe the author has created an interesting world that you can't help wonder how it's all going to turn out. There are enough varied and interesting characters that keep you cheering for their survival. I also caught an element of Alexis De Tocqueville when Stark slips in an element about how Americans have been trained by politicians and scientists to scorn those who think outside the acceptable circle of popular thought. Interesting. I'm curious if he's read De Tocqueville, or channeled him. Either way, it's a cool read!
