In his internationally bestselling and critically acclaimed novel "The Passage, "Justin Cronin constructed an unforgettable world transformed by a government experiment gone horribly wrong. Now the scope widens and the intensity deepens as the epic story surges forward with . . . THE TWELVE In the present day, as the man-made apocalypse unfolds, three strangers navigate the chaos. Lila, a doctor and an expectant mother, is so shattered by the spread of violence and infection that she continues to plan for her childs arrival even as society dissolves around her. Kittridge, known to the world as "Last Stand in Denver," has been forced to flee his stronghold and is now on the road, dodging the infected, armed but alone and well aware that a tank of gas will get him only so far. April is a teenager fighting to guide her little brother safely through a landscape of death and ruin. These three will learn that they have not been fully abandoned--and that in connection lies hope, even on the darkest of nights. One hundred years in the future, Amy and the others fight on for humankinds salvation . . . unaware that the rules have changed. The enemy has evolved, and a dark new order has arisen with a vision of the future infinitely more horrifying than mans extinction. If the Twelve are to fall, one of those united to vanquish them will have to pay the ultimate price. A heart-stopping thriller rendered with masterful literary skill, "The Twelve" is a grand and gripping tale of sacrifice and survival. Praise for "The Twelve" " A] literary superthriller."--"The New York Times Book Review" " " "An undeniable and compelling epic . . . a complex narrative of flight and forgiveness, of great suffering and staggering loss, of terrible betrayals and incredible hope."--Milwaukee" Journal Sentinel" ""The Twelve "is even better than "The Passage.""--"The Plain Dealer" "A compulsive read.""--San Francisco Chronicle" "Gripping . . . Cronin introduces] eerie new elements to his masterful mythology. . . . Enthralling, emotional and entertaining.""--The San Diego Union-Tribune" " " "Fine storytelling."--Associated Press "Cronin is one of those rare authors who works on two different levels, blending elegantly crafted literary fiction with cliff-hanging thrills."--"Fort Worth Star-Telegram" "From the Hardcover edition."
