Customer Reviews

Pandemic

The book starts out very quick paced, however it slows shortly in. The caliber of writing lacks behind other medical writers, such as Richard Preston. The concept surrounding the story line was intriguing, however it resolved too quickly and predictably. The main character, Jack Stapleton, was very illogical and hard to relate to at times.
