The Sanctum, the brainchild of gregarious security consultant Greg Fuller, is a luxurious, self-sustaining survival condominium situated fifty feet underground in a remote location in rural Maine. It's a plush bolt-hole for the rich and paranoid - a place where they can wait out the apocalypse in style. When a devastating super-flu virus hits the States, several families race to reach The Sanctum. Among them are committed preppers, people who have invested a great deal of time and money preparing for any apocalyptic scenario. All the residents have their own motivations for buying into the development. All are hiding secrets. And when the doors lock and a death occurs, they realise the greatest threat to their survival may be trapped in the Sanctum with them... Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

S.L. Grey teamed up again to bring to life a creepy thriller with weird characters. They placed those characters into the worst situations imaginable, and allowed the strange results to run wild. Under Ground explores a horrific situation, made worse when certain events occur, which in turn spurs on the (sometimes) dormant fears of some of the fine folks trapped under ground. This is to be expected, though, considering that most people who invest in underground condos - in the event of an apocalyptic travesty - aren't always the most logical thinkers in the world. Nevertheless, this old-school concept is turned into a modern nightmare. And it's AWESOME!
Under Ground is written in multi-perspective, which means we get to see the story out of almost everyone's point of views. Some people might not like this element of the book, and at times even I thought an omnipresent point of view would have worked better, but it's really the worst part of the book. The characters have distinct personalities, all of them unique in their own ways. The writing style is fast-paced, making the book easy to devour. But what I enjoyed the most was the ending. OMW that ending! I can't divulge my thoughts on it, because ... SPOILERS ... but I need to give the authors kudos for that thought provoking ending. I DID NOT SEE IT COMING.
S.L. Grey does not disappoint with Under Ground. Horror aficionados will get a kick out of this book, thriller lovers are in for a treat, and fans of dystopian novels will enjoy it, too.
