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.

我必须说,这本书的叙事节奏简直是扣人心弦。从一开始,作者就巧妙地设置了悬念,让我根本停不下来,恨不得一口气读完。每一个章节的结尾都像是一个精心设计的钩子,把我牢牢地吸引住,让我对下一个故事发展充满了期待。人物的塑造也相当立体,他们都有着各自的背景、动机和挣扎,让我能够感同身受,甚至在某些时刻,仿佛看到了自己的影子。我特别喜欢那些对话场景,真实而富有张力,每一次交流都推动着情节的发展,也揭示着人物内心的秘密。这种行云流水的叙事风格,让我彻底投入到故事情境中,忘记了时间的流逝。我为角色们的命运而担忧,为他们的选择而纠结,这种强烈的代入感,正是优秀作品的魅力所在。
评分这本书的语言风格简直是一股清流,用词精准且富有诗意。作者能够用最简洁的文字描绘出最壮丽的景象,用最生动的比喻勾勒出最细腻的情感。我常常会因为某一个词语,某一句描述而停下来,反复品味,感受其背后的深意。那种流畅且富有韵律的文字,读起来简直是一种享受,仿佛在聆听一曲悠扬的旋律。它不像某些书籍那样堆砌辞藻,而是恰到好处地运用文字的魅力,将故事的情感和意境烘托到极致。我尤其欣赏作者对细节的刻画,那些微小的、不为人注意之处,却被作者捕捉到,并赋予了生命力,使得整个故事更加真实可信,也更加引人入胜。
评分这本书带给我的思考是如此的深刻,它不仅仅是一个关于冒险的故事,更是一个关于人性、关于选择、关于存在的哲学探讨。作者在故事中埋下了许多引人深思的问题,让我不禁开始反思自己的人生,反思我们所处的社会,反思人类文明的未来。那些看似简单的情节,背后却蕴含着复杂的人生哲理,让人在阅读后久久不能平静。我被书中人物的困境和抉择所触动,也为作者提出的观点所启发。这是一种智力上的挑战,更是一种精神上的滋养。我感觉自己仿佛经历了一场思想的洗礼,对许多事情的看法都有了新的角度和深度。
评分整本书读下来,我最大的感受就是它的宏大视野和细腻情感的完美结合。作者似乎拥有着能够洞悉宇宙奥秘的智慧,同时又能够捕捉到人类最细微的情感波动。在讲述那些波澜壮阔的事件时,作者从未忘记角色的内心世界,他们的恐惧、他们的希望、他们的爱与失落,都被刻画得淋漓尽致。这种宏大与微小的对比,使得整个故事更加立体,也更加动人。我常常会在激动人心的情节中,被某个角色细腻的情感表达所打动,也常常会在感受到某种深刻的哲理时,惊叹于作者对宇宙的宏观把握。这是一种全方位的阅读体验,让我感到既震撼又温暖。
评分这本书的封面设计就深深吸引了我,那种深邃的星空背景,点缀着若隐若现的星云和遥远的行星,仿佛在诉说着一个关于宇宙、关于探索的宏大故事。翻开书页,文字的编排也极具匠心,字体的大小、行距的疏密,都恰到好处地营造出一种阅读的沉浸感。我迫不及待地开始阅读,想要一探究竟,作者究竟在这片星海中描绘了怎样的旅程。我期待着故事能够带领我穿越星际,去感受那些未知的世界,去思考人类在浩瀚宇宙中的位置,去体会那些或许只存在于想象中的奇遇。这本书的气质,总让我想起那些儿时仰望星空时的憧憬,那种对未知的好奇,对远方的渴望。我希望它能带给我一次心灵的洗礼,一次思想的启迪。
