Devolution
biNEW YORK TIMES /iBESTSELLER The #1 iNew York Times/i bestselling author of iWorld War Z/i is back with the Bigfoot thriller you didn t know you needed in your life, and one of the greatest horror novels I ve ever read (Blake Crouch, author of iDark Matter/i and iRecursion/i)./bbr brbFINALIST FOR THE LOCUS AWARD/bbrbrAs the ash and chaos from Mount Rainier s eruption swirled and finally settled, the story of the Greenloop massacre has passed unnoticed, unexamined . . . until now. The journals of resident Kate Holland, recovered from the town s bloody wreckage, capture a tale too harrowing and too earth-shattering in its implications to be forgotten. In these pages, Max Brooks brings Kate s extraordinary account to light for the first time, faithfully reproducing her words alongside his own extensive investigations into the massacre and the legendary beasts behind it. Kate s is a tale of unexpected strength and resilience, of humanity s defiance in the face of a terrible predator s gaze, and, inevitably, of savagery and death.brbrYet it is also far more than that.brbrBecause if what Kate Holland saw in those days is real, then we must accept the impossible. We must accept that the creature known as Bigfoot walks among us and that it is a beast of terrible strength and ferocity.brbrPart survival narrative, part bloody horror tale, part scientific journey into the boundaries between truth and fiction, this is a Bigfoot story as only Max Brooks could chronicle it and like none you ve ever read before.brbrbPraise for iDevolution/i/bbrbr Delightful . . . [A] tale of supernatural mayhem that fans of King and Crichton alike will enjoy. b iKirkus Reviews /i(starred review)ibrbr/i/b The story is told in such a compelling manner that horror fans will want to believe and, perhaps, take the warning to heart. b iBooklist/i (starred review)/b
