Relation Supposing Books The Fireman
From the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of NOS4A2 and Heart-Shaped Box comes a chilling novel about a worldwide pandemic of spontaneous combustion that threatens to reduce civilization to ashes and a band of improbable heroes who battle to save it, led by one powerful and enigmatic man known as the Fireman. The fireman is coming. Stay cool. No one knows exactly when it began or where it originated. A terrifying new plague is spreading like wildfire across the country, striking cities one by one: Boston, Detroit, Seattle. The doctors call it Draco Incendia Trychophyton. To everyone else it’s Dragonscale, a highly contagious, deadly spore that marks its hosts with beautiful black and gold marks across their bodies—before causing them to burst into flames. Millions are infected; blazes erupt everywhere. There is no antidote. No one is safe. Harper Grayson, a compassionate, dedicated nurse as pragmatic as Mary Poppins, treated hundreds of infected patients before her hospital burned to the ground. Now she’s discovered the telltale gold-flecked marks on her skin. When the outbreak first began, she and her husband, Jakob, had made a pact: they would take matters into their own hands if they became infected. To Jakob’s dismay, Harper wants to live—at least until the fetus she is carrying comes to term. At the hospital, she witnessed infected mothers give birth to healthy babies and believes hers will be fine too. . . if she can live long enough to deliver the child. Convinced that his do-gooding wife has made him sick, Jakob becomes unhinged, and eventually abandons her as their placid New England community collapses in terror. The chaos gives rise to ruthless Cremation Squads—armed, self-appointed posses roaming the streets and woods to exterminate those who they believe carry the spore. But Harper isn’t as alone as she fears: a mysterious and compelling stranger she briefly met at the hospital, a man in a dirty yellow fire fighter’s jacket, carrying a hooked iron bar, straddles the abyss between insanity and death. Known as The Fireman, he strolls the ruins of New Hampshire, a madman afflicted with Dragonscale who has learned to control the fire within himself, using it as a shield to protect the hunted . . . and as a weapon to avenge the wronged. In the desperate season to come, as the world burns out of control, Harper must learn the Fireman’s secrets before her life—and that of her unborn child—goes up in smoke.Rating Epithetical Books The Fireman

Now this is what I call a GOOD book. In fact it is a brilliant book especially if, like me, you have a liking for dystopian stories. You could say that it is yet another story in which the world is being ravaged by a plague of some kind, which is killing people off in their millions. That is exactly what happens but the "plague" in this case is fresh from Joe Hill's vivid imagination and it is totally original and very cleverly done.The fireman of the title is a wonderful character - an ordinaryI'll admit that I had high expectations for this book, and while I didn't love it, I still enjoyed it tremendously. I went back and forth on rating it at 3 or 4 stars, but 4 eventually seemed right. The Dragonscale virus is a doozy. There were a few instances when the story dragged, but I can't say that I was ever bored by it. I think what I really wanted more of was character development. I liked Harper, and the way she went from meek and mild, to a strong woman, but I wanted more. I loved the
Awesome book. I expect no less from one of my favourite authorsWhilst entirely different to his other works, this still hits the mark. Less of his trademark horror (although he does a good job of creating terror and suspense when required) but not quite the stereotypical post-apocalyptic story we've all become used to. The conditions that cause this story to unfold are all very well thought out. Harper, our main character, has to be up there with one of the best characters I've read (I was going

WINNER OF BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT OF 2016!UPDATE: Dropping this to two stars because it really was only an "okay" read. In time it might drop to a one star, because the more I think about this book, the more I dislike it.It is with a heavy heart that I must give this book three two stars. Last night, I was certain it would be four stars (this was before I realized how short-sighted the novel really is), but after much consideration, I just couldn't do it. Hopefully, I can effectively explain why.
Holy fuck. This book.....WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING!!!Spoilers marked in review :)I was a little nervous about starting The Fireman because of how long it was. I often find that books more than ~400 pages have a tendency to feel diluted and I usually end up skim-reading or skipping entire pages. If anything, I wished The Fireman was longer than 768 pages.A deadly pandemic sweeps across the globe, infecting people with Draco Incendia Trychophyton, aka Dragonscale. It marks the hosts with black
The people in charge can always justify doing terrible things in the name of the greater good. A slaughter here, a little torture there. It becomes moral to do things that would be immoral if an ordinary individual did em. They have been trying to take us down for quite a while. Some may enjoy the end of the world (EotW) arriving in the form of an incoming asteroid. Hey, it worked for the dinosaurs. Alien invasion is always popular. Very big in the 50s, whether by maleficent alien civilizations
A very interesting take on post-apocalyptic! Would recommend!
