From James DeMonaco, the writer/director of The Purge film
franchise, comes the provocative and terrifying last stand of a lone
outpost of women in the wake of a deadly pandemic.
Allie Hilts was still in high school when a fire at a top-secret
research facility released an air-borne pathogen that quickly spread to
every male on the planet, killing most. Allie witnessed every man she
ever knew be consumed by fearsome symptoms: scorching fevers and
internal bleeding, madness and uncontrollable violence. The world
crumbled around her. No man was spared, and the few survivors were
irrevocably changed. They became disturbingly strong, aggressive, and
ferocious. Feral.
Three years later, Allie has joined a group of hardened survivors in an
isolated, walled-in encampment. Outside the guarded walls the ferals
roam free, and hunt. Allie has been noticing troubling patterns in the
ferals' movements, and a disturbing number of new faces in the wild.
Something catastrophic is brewing on the horizon, and time is running
out. The ferals are coming, and there is no stopping them.
With Feral, writer/director James DeMonaco and acclaimed novelist
Brian Evenson have created a challenging and entertaining novel of
timely horror and exhilarating suspense.
