About this ebook
In the final book in the Infected trilogy, the entire human race balances on the razor’s edge of annihilation, beset by an enemy that turns our own bodies against us, that changes normal people into psychopaths or transforms them into nightmares.
To some, Doctor Margaret Montoya is a hero—a brilliant scientist who saved the human race from an alien intelligence determined to exterminate all of humanity. To others, she’s a monster—a mass murderer single-handedly responsible for the worst atrocity ever to take place on American soil.
All Margaret knows is that she’s broken. The blood of a million deaths is on her hands. Guilt and nightmares have turned her into a shut-in, too mired in self-hatred even to salvage her marriage, let alone be the warrior she once was. But she is about to be called into action again. Because before the murderous intelligence was destroyed, it launched one last payload: a soda can–sized container filled with deadly microorganisms that make humans feed upon their own kind. That harmless-looking container has languished a thousand feet below the surface of Lake Michigan, undisturbed and impotent . . . until now.
Part Cthulhu epic, part zombie apocalypse and part blockbuster alien-invasion tale, Pandemic completes the Infected trilogy and sets a new high-water mark in the world of horror fiction.

This book finishes out the triangle that is Infected, Contagious and Pandemic. Just as with the previous two, Scott Sigler keeps you on the edge of whatever you may be sitting on, continuously telling yourself to call it quits after finishing a chapter while simultaneously starting a new chapter. The worst thing about this book is the fact that I know this was the last book of a trilogy and there's nothing else to come. It's all over, just like that. Happy reading!

The characters are fantastic, the details are outstanding, and the plot is completely riveting. This is the best book of the three in my opinion. Couldn't put it down. Sort of sad its all over!

I'd like to rate this book higher, but after buying the book I keep getting an error when I try to read it and it shuts down. If someone can fix it so I can read the novel, I'll likely change my review as I've enjoyed the series to this point.
