OverviewNow a Netflix film starring Stanley Tucci, Miranda Otto and Kiernan Shipka, from the author of 30 Days of Night. In the darkness of an underground cave, blind creatures hunt by sound. Then there is light, voices, and they feed... Swarming from their prison, the creatures thrive; to whisper is to summon death. As the hordes lay waste to Europe, a girl watches to see if they will cross the sea. Deaf for years, she knows how to live in silence; now, it is her family's only chance of survival. To leave their home, to shun others. But what kind of world will be left?

There is both hope and despair. - Project Fandom Fans of zombie literature from Max Brooks to Robert Kirkman will appreciate the family's growing desperation and frustration as they flee the city and race headlong into the unknown, facing increasingly difficult odds. - Barnes & Noble To say I'm impressed is an understatement. He adeptly delivers a story that has terror, mystery, tension, and even sorrow, and even with all the monsters literally flying all over the place, it all feels very realistic. I can't see this not being one of my favorite books this year. - Horrortalk This is an A-grade story that grips the reader's attention from page one.
