A real find
Extraordinary
Ridiculously gripping straight from the start
Will thrill and delight ... a terrifically well-observed, haunting and occasionally harrowing read
This is an uplifting, exciting and often humorous yarn about camaraderie, endurance and redemption. Throughout, Walker nicely evokes the agony and exhilaration of distance running.
... what sets this novel apart is Walker's extraordinary emotional articulacy
A page-turning thriller with a pace as relentless as the characters' feet hitting the pavement. A deft look into the mind of a man who needs the near-destruction of the world to show him what truly matters
Brilliant ... superb to the end
A really fun, engaging, exciting, and compassionate take on a familiar scenario: the apocalypse ... Highly recommended
Compulsively readable
