DISEASE is one of those select few." - THE GEEKDOM OF GORE "Well written, interesting and paced in a way that will get you wondering what happens next." - CASEY DOUGLASS OF DARK DISTRACTIONS "Wahl has created a story that is part Dr. Sleep meets The Walking Dead meets The Following... this is a story of survival chock full of colorful characters and plenty of brain-splitting action." - THE BOOKIE MONSTER
