Join the Sactown Sci-Fi
crew as we discuss Wanderers by Chuck Wendig on Wednesday July 12th at 6:00
p.m. (PT).
A decadent rock star. A
deeply religious radio host. A disgraced scientist. And a teenage girl who may
be the world's last hope. In the tradition of The Stand and Station Eleven
comes a gripping saga that weaves an epic tapestry of humanity into an astonishing
tale of survival. Shana wakes up one morning to discover her little sister in
the grip of a strange malady. She appears to be sleepwalking. She cannot talk
and cannot be woken up. And she is heading with inexorable determination to a
destination that only she knows. But Shana and are sister are not alone. Soon
they are joined by a flock of sleepwalkers from across America, on the same
mysterious journey. And like Shana, there are other "shepherds" who
follow the flock to protect their friends and family on the long dark road
ahead. For on their journey, they will discover an America convulsed with
terror and violence, where this apocalyptic epidemic proves less dangerous than
the fear of it. As the rest of society collapses all around them--and an ultraviolent
militia threatens to exterminate them--the fate of the sleepwalkers depends on
unraveling the mystery behind the epidemic. The terrifying secret will either
tear the nation apart--or bring the survivors together to remake a shattered
world.
