Richard Preston- The Cobra Event 3.5 Stars
Dr. Alice Austen of the Centers for Disease
Control is on the trail of a new strain of virus. A man is releasing bits of
this virus into the New York City
population. A homeless man dies and is quickly followed by a young girl. Now
they must locate this man before he causes a widespread epidemic. He has no
intention of being caught though and will not go down without a fight.
It took me a bit to get into this book.
That being said, it had some really intense parts that led up to an explosive
ending. The plot kind of twisted and turned, but was slowed down by parts that
were pointless fluff. It did also have a few parts that I wondered about the
plausibility. The characters were really well done, and it must have taken some
research to find out symptoms of different diseases. I especially loved the way
it ended. Overall it was a pretty good read.
