A very quick, haunting read. I went into this without any expectations and was well rewarded for it.
Please don't try to start puzzling things out or guessing at the plot twists, as this story is far too short to hold up.

Chilling and interesting, this short story will surprise you with its well-written characters (something not as common in short stories, I'm afraid) and its ending.
I'd love to see an extension of this premise.

This is terrible but it was free from Prime reading. Slapdash story that reads more like a rough draft. Lazy writing and a halfassed plot.

An unusual variation on a zombie-type apocalypse. An easy read. A rare "short story" with a proper ending instead of a cliff-hanger.

Had some neat ideas but at its heart was a "professor has an affair with a young co-ed and feels bad about it" story. Boring.

I wasn't a fan.
It feels too sloppily put together. Some events don't lend themselves to a short story. Maybe that's why I didn't particularly care for this. But I never felt any tension, never cared about any of the characters, and boggled at the whole premise.
