Ratings and reviews

only dissapointment is that I read it in 2013 now I am waiting for two years on the last book and probably will have to wait till late 2016. but book is awesome

Had me from chapter one - The Passage opened my mind & imagination returned - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED (read The PASSAGE 1st obviously)

Interesting.... Just a little too much religion
