Review:
Resonant
A strange virus is spreading through the air in Las Vegas, and everyone is susceptible. April Tate has watched friends and neighbors turn into vampire-like creatures before her eyes, and then she figures out how to kill them in an attempt to get her family to safety.
This is a prequel to Reign of Blood and it has set up April to be pretty ferocious. I like how April just does not assume that these creatures that are acting like vampires will actually fall prey to vampire folklore; so she tries out each method on the infected that she comes across. This is a good set-up for a terrifying world where anyone might become a vampire at any moment, without a bite! I can't wait to read Reign of Blood next.
