'48 - James Herbert
Just finished the audiobook version of this novel.
Despite the narrator occasionally slipping into a faux William Shatner this was an enjoyable piece of candy floss. It comes across more like an action movie than a book.
What I did notice was the references to I Am Legend. There's the dog, the single-survivor-syndrome, the narrator's wife dying of the disease. Didn't bother me that much but it did come across a bit blatant.
Overall 7/10. Nothing major but it did pass the time.
