Publisher's Summary

A lethal virus is awoken on an abandoned spaceship in this incredibly fast-paced, claustrophobic thriller.

They thought the ship would be their salvation.

Zahra knew every detail of the plan. House of Wisdom, a massive exploration vessel, had been abandoned by the government of Earth a decade earlier, when a deadly virus broke out and killed everyone on board in a matter of hours. But now it could belong to her people if they were bold enough to take it. All they needed to do was kidnap Jaswinder Bhattacharya - the sole survivor of the tragedy, and the last person whose genetic signature would allow entry to the spaceship.

But what Zahra and her crew could not know was what waited for them on the ship - a terrifying secret buried by the government. A threat to all of humanity that lay sleeping alongside the orbiting dead.

And then they woke it up.

What the critics say

"Kali Wallace, the world needs you - and this book. Salvation Day is a taut thriller, a near-future look at where we're headed next, a mirror reflecting the best and worst of humanity. It is all that, and so much more. I'd follow the rebellious heroine Zahra anywhere - especially into another nail-biter of a story like this." (James Rollins, New York Times best-selling author of The Demon Crown)

Salvation Day is a masterful story set at a screaming pace. It had me holding on for dear life all the way through. I loved it.” (Mur Lafferty, Hugo Award-winning author of Six Wakes)

"Breakneck pace with real thrills and chills - plus lots of meaty stuff to think about. One of the major science-fiction debuts of 2019. Kali Wallace is a force to be reckoned with." (Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of Quantum Night)

Resoundingly mediocre

I’m a huge fan of science fiction, horror, body horror and you won’t find much of either in this book.
The character supposition is by far the worst aspect and the largest filler dialogue throughout the book. It’s so basic it hurts. The tiny bit of romance was alright however fleeting.
The characters themselves are preformed ok enough but their lack of written personality is only reflected by the lack of skill as performers.

It’s just mediocre survival horror. Poorly written poorly executed.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
