Finally. A post-apocalyptic novel that doesn't involve zombies, but instead employs a far more terrifying group of antagonists: cannibals. Who cares about mindless, animated corpses stumbling around, chewing on the hapless when there are cold, calculating, living people doing the same thing? Janna knows how to build a sense of dread, through her narrative, and if you like dark, atmospheric works of suspense -- ones that delve into the darker sides of human nature and the fight for survival in the face of such horrors -- then you damned well better read this gem.
