Jason Kristopher delivers a dark, intelligent story that explores not just the end of civilization but the moral weight of surviving it.
The novel opens with raw emotional force, immediately pulling the reader into a world where the undead are not a sudden phenomenon, but the result of a long-buried scientific and governmental secret. What makes END stand out is its sweeping timeline: the narrative stretches from the 1800s through World War II and into modern-day America, revealing how outbreaks were repeatedly contained, covered up, and weaponized. This layered historical approach adds depth and realism.
David Blake is a deeply human protagonist whose personal loss grounds the larger catastrophe in genuine emotion. His grief, guilt, and determination make him relatable, even as the world around him collapses. Alongside him, the formation of AEGIS and the elite military teams introduces a strong tactical element. The military detail is sharp, clearly written by someone who understands strategy, hierarchy, and combat psychology.
END is a powerful opening to The Dying of the Light seriesโdark, thought-provoking, and impossible to put down.
