Judges Review from Writer's Digest

Excellent! Excellent! I loved this book! There are many, many things you did exactly right. Characters are so well set-up, well thought-out. The plot is extremely intriguing, especially in a day and age where wonder about the viability of the human race. Each chapter reveals just enough about what's coming that I just couldn't put it down. Which brings me to chapter length: perfect! The shorter chapters very much drive what is happening - they punctuate the anxiety in the story, the sense of urgency. Scientifically, I have no idea if a prion exists, but I sure didn't care because your scientific explanations were enough for me! Well-done!"
