Descripción
As the narrative unfolds, a select group of individuals emerges amidst the destruction, each grappling with their own personal demons while confronting the greater horrors that now threaten humanity's very existence. A tale of resilience, hope, and survival, the characters are drawn together by fate as they forge unexpected alliances, face heart-wrenching choices, and fight to preserve what little remains of their world.
Burdened by the weight of their pasts and the enormity of their quest, they must confront not only the external dangers of a world gone mad but also the internal conflicts that define their journey. The struggle against overwhelming odds becomes a testament not only to the endurance of the human spirit but also to the complexities of survival in a shattered world.

I enjoyed this book, but I was never invested emotionally. It kinda reminded me of The Last of Us and the Fallout series so if you like those games, this will be a book for you. If course the other literary comparison is The Stand by Stephen King. I say I enjoyed it, which is true, but there were many times when I felt underwhelmed.I didn't like the shift that have fairly early on. But then I got used to what happened and I liked the slowness of the progression. Here's it kinda got a little too slow at the just over half way point.I didn't really like all the religious stuff either. Same as with The Stand, I didn't really like how God came into it and that it made it feel like there was some greater thing behind it all. I would have preferred that it was just a story about a human mistake and survival.And I never became that attached to any of the characters so I never felt sad or relieved or happy about any of them. I know this makes me sound like I didn't enjoy it much-i did. Cronin is a good writer, but I just felt there was a bit lacking. When I compare it to The Last of Us and The Stand. I loved those characters. I felt them, knew them, liked them. I just didn't care as much for these.
I'm not crying at work, YOU'RE crying at work. This is my 7th (8th?) read of The Passage and I cannot overstate how devastatingly beautiful this story is. THIS is what dystopian fiction should be. If I could only read one series for the rest of my life, it would be this one. I will be buried with these books.
