The Fall

Last week the vampiric virus invaded Manhattan. This week-- the world! Eph and his small team set out to stop these bloodthirsty monsters-- while his now blood-crazed ex-wife is stalking the city, looking for their young son.

Relazione

"The Fall is gripping, and vivid enough to spur a few nightmares.... Clearly pulling from his vast imagination, one that created the creatures of Pan's Labyrinth, del Toro invents a vampire that manages to be unique." - Lisa Ko, author of The Leavers
"Fast-paced, action-packed, and even better than the first volume, this fun and scary read is highly recommended for thriller and horror fans. Newcomers to the trilogy will have no trouble following the story line. Buy multiple copies." - Library Journal
"Guillermo del toro is a mad, artistic genius, and his take on vampires crushes the glossy teeny-bopper model that's become so achingly popular.... What matters most is the glorious violent mayhem propelling the book's plot like a cannonball.... Insanely entertaining.... Wildly imaginative." - Albuquerque Journal
"Taut pacing and macabre fight scenes.... Scary." - Booklist
"Set over the course of three intense weeks, Del Toro and Hogan's gripping second volume in their near-future vampire trilogy picks up where The Strain, the first volume, left off..." - Publishers Weekly
"The climax, all fire and brimstone, nicely sets up the third and final volume." - Financial Times
"Apocalyptic action. . . . Part The Andromeda Strain, part Night of the Living Dead." - Salon.com
