Demon In The Freezer - you want scary?
I'm about 3/4 of the way through Richard Preston's The Demon In The Freezer, and it is frightening stuff, to say the least.
Much like what he did to raise fears about Ebola with The Hot Zone, this one addresses a far bigger, more potent fear: smallpox

i read a review of this book and a guy who read it told me some stuff about it and it is indeed scary but also just kinda paranoia. if the alterened smallpox virus got out it'd be terrible but still the chances of it getting out are slim, however still possible.
