Book 2 in an EPIC series. I loved every minute of it. (I'm not putting much effort into these reviews because I have no idea if the site will even work.)

Justin Cronin glaubte anfangs nicht, dass „The Passage“ ein ernstzunehmendes Projekt werden könnte. Der Auslöser war seine damals 8-jährige Tochter Iris, die ihn aufforderte, endlich mal ein spannendes Buch zu schreiben. Sie wünschte sich Vampire, eine rothaarige Figur und ein Mädchen, das die Welt ...

The second installment of The Passage Trilogy by Justin Cronin takes us backwards to the beginning of the viral outbreak, a government experiment gone awry.

I'm not sure why I didn't enjoy this book so much the first time around.This time I enjoyed it immensely. It has a different pace to 'The Passage', faster with more action.

I remember The Passage as an incredible fast read and with the City of Mirrors being published recently, it was more than time to finally read The Twelve.

The story picks up much like the first book did, after a summary of the first book, we followed a new group people following the initial outbreak then jump forward about a hundred years to the group of people we followed in the last book. (This book takes place 5 years after the last book ended.) ...

Last year, I finally got around to reading Justin Cronin's much-hyped The Passage. Perhaps because of that hype, I was not expecting much; so imagine my surprise when it turned out to be an excellent epic novel that was more post-apocalyptic than anything else. It was also long. Very long. And yet i...

The story jumps around a lot and even thou I really like the main story arc all the sidestories made me lose interest. The first book was way better than this one.

The Passage, the first in Justin Cronin's trilogy of vampires in a post-apocalyptic world, was a tough read for me. It wasn't difficult so much as it was slow, with a lot of characters to track, and lengthy passages where nothing much happened. I stuck with it because Cronin did an extraordinary j...
