A very interesting concept.....medication, that is supposed to cure all mental ills, eventually becomes the catalyst for worldwide disaster. Those who took this medicine returned to their old psychological ills to murderous degrees after the drug was banned. The book is very gory, but quite the page turner all the way up till just before the end. The climax of the book seemed a bit silly to me given how the rest of the book turned out, but that's just me. Overall, a very entertaining, if often stomach turning read.

This is a weird tale-full of horror possibilities it does entertain till the end. Great-no but a good read.

Edge of your seat suspenseful story! I just wish it was something more palatable--pretty gruesome in parts.

After the first chapter, I almost gave up on this book. I don't like zombies. But in chapter two...things started to be explained. A drug company that introduces a drug into the environment without proper testing, a true medical condition is exacerbated (no walking corpses, like zombies!), and a government coverup op starts, again. Writing is excellent, only allowing parts of the whole story to come out at a time. It is writtern in layers; more is going on all the time than what you are told. Unpredictable and suspenseful with enough dry wit thrown in to keep it from building too fast. The man's hernias¿if you've never had to live with a couple, you'd be surprised how much it interfers with you life! Good read...off to get the sequel now.

When I first saw how many pages I had to read, I said this is going to be a drag. However, the fast pace and fun story line made it a breeze.

Started off a little slow, but once all the characters came together... boy, what a roller coaster ride to the end. Bloody, gruesome, and really intense at times. I really enjoyed it. MMMM.....sssskinnn!

This book makes you think about the things you put into your body, intentionally or not. It was fast paced and quirky. I really enjoyed the story.

Great book when you got nothing better to do. A few missing pieces in time frame. Pay close attention or you will get lost. All in all I enjoyed it.

Overview
The old furrier building in a rundown part of Metro was the perfect place to find a body, and Joe Borland knew they wouldn't have dragged him out of retirement to see it if something hadn't eaten its skin. It's been twenty years since Borland battled the Variant Effect, and twenty since he let his partner get skinned alive. Now both of them are ordered back into action to meet the new threat.
