Publisher's Summary

One morning, the residents of Walden, Virginia, woke up to find the rest of the world gone. Just...gone. Surrounding their town was a wall of inky darkness, plummeting Walden into permanent night. Nothing can get in - not light, not people, not even electricity, radio, TV, internet, food, or water. And nothing can get out. No one who dared to penetrate the mysterious barrier has ever been seen again. Only their screams were heard. But for some, the darkness is not the worst of their fears. Driven mad by thirst, hunger, and perpetual night, the residents of Walden are ready to explode. The last few sane prisoners of this small town must prepare a final stand against their neighbors, themselves, and something even worse...something out there...in the darkness.

Cosmic horror + King's 'The Dome' + gross stuff

This book is worth a listen when you don't want to overthink too much. Brian Keene certainly has been developing his own universe and has quite the imagination. My only critique is with regard to the level of gross out horror with all of the animal harm, sexual harm type references. I prefer the cosmic horror parts, the sense of dread and solid world building. Overall I am open to reading more of this author's novels.
