⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Sorensen delivers a compelling creature feature that balances horror with absurdity effectively. The narrative excels in portraying the visceral toll of survival when legal and social systems fail. By focusing on the breakdown of normalcy within Doc's Dockside Tavern, the book creates intense, claustrophobic tension. It suits readers who enjoy urban horror traditions where ordinary people must combat contagion without help. The story avoids quiet literary reflection, opting instead for gritty action and emotional strain. Fans of flawed heroes facing impossible odds in confined spaces will find this a satisfying, high-energy read that prioritizes physical conflict over complex character development.
