PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Lions, and tigers, and bears! Oh my! In this thriller from Patterson and Ledwidge, all members of the animal kingdom, from true predators to man's former best friends, decide that humans are what's for dinner. The book's follows narrator, Jackson Oz, an environmental biologist who has lost his reputation, his university position, and nearly all of his money trying to warn the world about just such a cataclysmic disaster. Reader Jay Snyder provides Oz with a touch of breezy optimism at least early on that takes the edge off the grim slashing and that occurs in the alternating third-person descriptions of man-beast encounters. Snyder also delivers a fair amount of suspense, as Oz embarks on a desperate search for the cause of and the antidote to the sudden worldwide wilding. And while the book's conclusion may strain credulity, Snyder's Oz presents his case so positively and persuasively that it's not until the final disc plays when all the dogs and cats and rats have returned to their natural states that anyone is likely to care. A Little, Brown hardcover.

To short for the money
Short, cliffhanger, to spend for what you got. Won't read any more of his.
rushed thriller
This is an interesting and fast-paced continuation from the first book. I liked it, but because of the whole book shot thing, I think it wasn't as much my kind of thing. My understanding is that book shots are short books with just the action bits aimed for people who normally watch action movies instead of reading. It's a way to give reading to people who usually aren't readers. I'm a big reader so I'm more into full stories with the supporting details instead of just the action. Thus, I liked it, but it wasn't as good as the first book for me.
In this story, the animals are still going crazy, but now it's also spreading to humans. It also ends in a creepy way that lets you know everything is not over and may even be worse than before.
