This book pulls you into another life and another time and you will not want to leave. Almost 1,000 pages and I have read it 4 times over the years, and want more. My favorite book. The characters become real. At times your are horrified and other times joyful. How would I survive a nuclear holocaust? Visit these characters, pure and evil, see which side you would be on. Never a dull moment. You will not want to put this book down.

Read this in the early 90's. Loaned it out and it was never returned. Amazing book! Highly recommend.. Was expecting a paperback and received a hard copy. This was starting in Kansas, a few miles from where I live. Felt so real as I read it. Gave me chills! This book is a must read for anyone who loves a good vs bad story. As it is about 900 pages long, my sister said she would take at least a month to read it. She finished it in 3 days. Can't put it down!

I've read quite a few post apocalyptic books including The Stand by Stephen King, which was great; however, this is the best post apocalyptic book ever! It's an excellent story and very well written. Robert McCammon is really in a class all his own for sure. I can't recommend this book highly enough! It gets a 5/5 star rating from me.

This book is perfect for readers who may get bored with other first-person narratives: the story is told from the perspective of multiple characters. It's fun to figure out how the characters' stories will entwine. The post-apocalyptic setting lends the perfect amount of suspense. Definitely not an over-night read (unless you're determined).

Do not purchase from grandeagleretail. They are misprints (which explains how they have multiple new copies of this book). The last page is 888, which is nowhere near the end of the book. It has 956 pages. The story abruptly ends, then there are a couple of "ad" pages, and then chapter one starts again.
