Publisher Description
The acclaimed national bestseller that is “old-school horror at its best” (Stephen King) follows a scout troop as it is unexpectedly caught up in an isolating and utterly terrifying fight for their lives.
Once every year, Scoutmaster Tim Riggs leads a troop of boys into the Canadian wilderness for a weekend camping trip—a tradition as comforting and reliable as a good ghost story around a roaring bonfire. But when an unexpected intruder stumbles upon their campsite—shockingly thin, disturbingly pale, and voraciously hungry—Tim and the boys are exposed to something far more frightening than any tale of terror. The human carrier of a bioengineered nightmare. A horror that spreads faster than fear. A harrowing struggle for survival with no escape from the elements, the infected…or one another.

LORD OF THE FLIES MEETS ALIEN
This novel (audiobook) is disturbing and terrifying. It’s also very good. I like Nick Cutter’s work and the narration is great. There were a few times when I started getting sick to my stomach. I had read the novel years ago but wanted to listen to the audiobook. I highly recommend!
The turtle thing …
Pretty good book overall. But man near the end there was like an hour and a half long frigging description of how these kids kill this turtle and like it’s a little much. Actually like a LOT much. like I would’ve given it more stars if I didn’t have to sit there and listen to that for at an hour.

Well written but gross.
I have to say, this book was the goriest book Ive ever read/listened to. It was very hard to listen to so my tastes in books compels me to give it three stars. Im not even sure I want to finish it. The display of cruelty punctuated by gore was unexpected and maybe not so necessary.
