5.0

One the best books I've read recently. No zombies, no asteroid hits, no robot rebellion, no pandemic catatstrophe - and yet it's one of the scariest and realistic-looking apocalypse books I've ever read. Extremely well-written, fast-paced, a bit educational, without superheroes or supervillains, it keeps you on the edge all the time. I couldn't put it down, kept reading at night and will definitely buy it for my friends.
It's been a long time since I gave any book 5 stars but this one fully deserves the highest rating.
