In the present day, as the man-made apocalypse unfolds, three strangers navigate the chaos. Lila, a doctor and an expectant mother, is so shattered by the spread of violence and infection that she continues to plan for her child’s arrival even as society dissolves around her. Kittridge, known to the world as “Last Stand in Denver,” has been forced to flee his stronghold and is now on the road, dodging the infected, armed but alone and well aware that a tank of gas will get him only so far. April is a teenager fighting to guide her little brother safely through a landscape of death and ruin. These three will learn that they have not been fully abandoned—and that in connection lies hope, even on the darkest of nights.

One hundred years in the future, Amy and the others fight on for humankind’s salvation . . . unaware that the rules have changed. The enemy has evolved, and a dark new order has arisen with a vision of the future infinitely more horrifying than man’s extinction. If the Twelve are to fall, one of those united to vanquish them will have to pay the ultimate price.

Theo and Maus are apparently dead?!? Me no like.

This one was kind of all over the place until the last 20%. the pieces all came together nicely but some where pretty predictable or else so unpredictable that I didnt care for them.

i guess the final book will be them chasing down Zero. I thought Zero died in the Passage but i guess not or it wasnt said one way or the other. so now are they living in a world with no virals except for the ones of Zero's line? that would just been Lish and Amy from what we've been told? Will Lish change into an Amy style battle-viral?

one thing i didnt like about The Twelve was that most of the actual twelve didnt do anything. After the Passage, i thought the next two books would be about Peter/Lish/Amy chasing down each of the Twelve but instead its just about a 3rd string 'red eye' Hitler-guy and the twelves dont do anything and only two are actually talked about in detail.
