Series Sunday is a bookish meme hosted by Literary Marie. I encourage all of my fellow book bloggers and bookhearts to play along.
- Read an installment of a series.
- Share your review/recommendation below.
- Include the title, author and series name.
My Series Sunday pick is The Passage, the first book in trilogy of same name by Justin Cronin. The Fox TV adaptation aired on Mondays and is available OnDemand or via streaming. Please read Part One of this review before continuing.
"OBE. Overcome by events. That was what was happening now. The world—the human race—had been overcome by events." ~ pg. 260
Welcome to Part Two: The Year of Zero! As said before, Special Agent Brad Wolgast goes rogue and protects Amy from a terrifying government experiment. This entire section of the book is dedicated to Agent Brad protecting Amy and securing a new hidden life. The best place to hideout and allow Amy to recover is an old campsite. It has been abandoned for years and is secluded. He sets up house and keeps a low profile. Amy only goes outdoors at dusk or nighttime while Agent Brad works outside in the daytime. They settle into a comfortable routine until trouble comes knocking.
A glimpse of this part of the book is shown on the Season One finale. It is boring but necessary to the plot. I am anxious to read further and get to more action!
