AUTHOR: Stephen King

YEAR OF RELEASE: 2006

MY RATING: 9/10

BLURB:

The event which propels civilization into its second dark age is known as The Pulse. The virus is carried by every cellular phone operating in the world. Within hours, those receiving calls will be infected.

Clayton Riddell, a young artist, knows he has to reach his son before the young boy switches on his phone. And time is running out...

MY DESCRIPTION: An intense and quick-paced book where someone somewhere triggers 'The Pulse', which causes anyone who answers their phone to turn into a zombie. Clayton Riddell teams up with a group of people to try and survive long enough to find his son. This was the first one of King's books that I ever read and I think it will be very difficult for anything to surpass it. It was filled with action the whole way through and packed full of surprises.
