Wow, this one was absolutely amazing.
I dropped (not DNF'd; I'll pick it back up eventually) Cows for this one. And boy oh boy, am I glad that I did.
I grew to lovethe last character, Max.
The ending was somewhat confusing, though?Did Max end up actually infected? If so, how? Did the worms stay dormant and hidden inside of him somehow?
Anyway, it was a fabulous read! Sort of a slow start once it focuses on the boys, but it was very worth it.
