Suffer the Children: A Novel

Craig DiLouie

3 1 rating · 1 review on Book Nook

On a grand canvas reminiscent of Guillermo del Torro and Justin Cronin, acclaimed author Craig DiLouie presents "a terrifying novel filled with impossible decisions [and] a stark, brutal, and chilling vision of the end of days" (David Moody, author of Hater).

SO MANY MOUTHS TO FEED... It begins on an ordinary day: children around the world are dying. All children, everywhere—a global crisis beyond any parent’s worst nightmare. Then, a miracle beyond imagining: three days later, they return. Shattered mothers and fathers see their sons and daughters happy and whole once more, playing and laughing as before—but only when they feed. They hunger for blood…and they can’t get enough upon which to feast. Without it, they die again. How far would you go to keep someone you love alive?

★★★☆☆

This is a hard one not to spoil.. This book gives an example of what parents are willing to do when something happens to their children or for this matter every child in the world falls prey to this.. “ deadly illness. “ What has happen to the children?.. These parents are about to find out. This kept me on edge for most of the book. I am not sure what I would do in this situation since I’m not a parent. I felt if your child comes back from being ☠️, and they’re asking for a certain red liquid.. then there needs to be an intervention. If you read the book, tell me what you would do in this situation?
