Suffer the Children

Craig DiLouie

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

From an acclaimed horror writer, a chilling tale of blood-hungry children who rise from the dead in this innovative spin on apocalyptic vampire fiction. Suffer the Children presents a terrifying tale of apocalyptic fiction, as readers are introduced to Herod's Syndrome, a devastating illness that suddenly and swiftly kills all young children across the globe. Soon, they return from the grave…and ask for blood. And with blood, they stop being dead. They continue to remain the children they once were...but only for a short time, as they need more blood to live. The average human body holds ten pints of blood, so the inevitable question for parents everywhere becomes: How far would you go to bring your child back?

    I read this basically one sitting and loved it. It reminded me of the book Sour Candy in the terms of how hard parenting is. As a parent you want your kids to be safe and protected and wanting for nothing even if it kills you. As a mother to a three year old I couldn’t imagine the pain and suffering of losing a child and then going through what the parents did in this book. This was fantastic and I suggest those who like pandemic and weird books to give this one a try.
