Domino Falls — Steven Barnes; Tananarive Due

Two bestselling award-winning authors team up with the second book in an exciting new paranormal series: What happens when an alien race brings Earth to the brink of Apocalypse, forcing a struggle for control of the planet?

The date: A week after tomorrow. An unprecedented infection has swept the world, bringing an epidemic of mindless biting attacks from the infected that leave you...changed. Society has broken down. Survivors call the infected Freaks. But the Freaks are more than mindless zombies--they are actually the result of an alien life form slowly colonizing the Earth, and humanity is ultimately enmeshed in a struggle for control of the planet.

Part "Dawn of the Dead" and part "Road Warrior," "Domino Falls" is a testimony to courage, friendship, and the power of faith. It is a horrifying and heartbreaking, exciting and""strangely romantic, coming-of-age story on the edge of the Apocalypse.
