Summary

*Day One:* A series of terrorist attacks spread a cloud of noxious gas over highly populated areas.

*Day Two:* Higher brain function erodes in those exposed to the gas. Their bodies begin to distort, faces distending, skin sallowing, teeth elongating.

*Day Three:* The infected disappear into the shadows, fleeing the harsh daylight which has begun to sear their flesh.

*Day Four:* The world is DEVOURED.

Life isn’t kind to Lance York. A full-time job has eluded him for years, his wife loathes the sight of him, his bank accounts are empty, and his wealthy father-in-law revels in his failures.

After he lunges in front of a car to save a sick and disoriented woman, Lance awakens in a quarantined hospital. A devastating plague is spreading worldwide, driving those infected with it insane. Their bodies begin to mutate into horrors that have haunted mankind’s nightmares for centuries.

The world descends into chaos as the infected flee to the shadows, emerging at night to devour the remnants of civilization.

With the help of an unlikely ally, Lance must navigate through the collapsing city of Pittsburgh, striving to escape the madness of the apocalypse that unfolds around them.

so much goodness!

I enjoyed the story very much. Characters were real in their vulnerability and the plethora of details made it a very nice read. It pulls you in, just after finishing book one I've bought the other two straight away!

Interesting

An interesting premise of vampire-like creature's rather than zombies ushering in the end of civilization, an enjoyable read. I received this book in exchange for my honest review.

Vampire Vampire

I’d had this audio book in my library for 5 years I’d forgotten about it....and I’m sorry it took me so long to get around to it.

It a fast moving story with great characters and action and feels very believable You see an apocalypse on fold from the perspective of a normal everyday person okay who is down on his luck with his job and his marriage.

I finished this book in two days which is unusual for me because I usually only listen to about an hour a day or an audiobook on my way to and from work book has to be very good for me to break my rule and read it more.

Cannot wait to read book two

Brilliant

Would you consider the audio edition of Devoured to be better than the print version?

I would consider both to be brilliant!

What other book might you compare Devoured to, and why?

I haven't read anything similar to this before so cant compare it.

Which scene did you most enjoy?

lots of them but I did like it when Lance meets Cass

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

If I had enough time in one sitting most definately

Any additional comments?

highly recommended! Brilliant story that keeps you hooked!

Trashy Fun

Despite being overloaded with a few too many pop culture references and not having an original theme or idea in sight this is actually remarkably fun.

The story is a pulpy more male fantasy version of The Strain, which moves at a decent pace and is elevated significantly by Wayne June's excellent performance.

A short and trashy but ultimately satisfying distraction. The sequel is downloading as I type.
