Description
Una novela escrita por el aclamado autor Chuck Wendig, el considerado por toda la crítica como gran relevo de Stephen King. Una de las mejores novelas distópicas y de terror de todos los tiempos, que relata una misteriosa epidemia que asola Estados Unidos. NOMINADO AL PREMIO BRAM STOKER. MEJOR LIBRO DEL AÑO PARA: The Washington Post - NPR - The Guardian - Kirkus Reviews - Publishers Weekly - Library Journal - Polygon Shana se despierta una mañana y descubre que su hermana pequeña ha sido presa por las garras de una extraña enfermedad. Parece que se ha convertido en una sonámbula. Es incapaz de hablar y de despertarse, y se dirige con inexorable determinación a un destino que sólo ella conoce. Pero Shana y su hermana no están solas. Pronto se les unen una banda de sonámbulos procedente de todo Estados Unidos, para realizar el mismo viaje misterioso. Como Shana, hay otros pastores que siguen al rebaño de sonámbulos en un intento por proteger a sus amigos y familiares en el largo y oscuro camino que les espera. En su recorrido, descubrirán una América convulsionada por el terror y la violencia, donde esta nueva epidemia apocalíptica resulta menos peligrosa que el miedo a ella. A medida que el resto de la sociedad va derrumbándose a su alrededor, y una milicia ultraviolenta amenaza con exterminarlos, el destino de los sonámbulos parece depender del hecho de desentrañar el misterio existente detrás de la epidemia. Este aterrador secreto tanto puede destrozar a toda la nación como bien unir a los supervivientes en su intento de rehacer un mundo devastado. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A decadent rock star. A deeply religious radio host. A disgraced scientist. And a teenage girl who may be the world's last hope. From the mind of Chuck Wendig comes "a magnum opus ... a story about survival that's not just about you and me, but all of us, together" (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). NOMINATED FOR THE BRAM STOKER AWARD - NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Washington Post - NPR - The Guardian - Kirkus Reviews - Publishers Weekly - Library Journal - Polygon... 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 her 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 as the sleepwalking phenomenon awakens terror and violence in America, the real danger may not be the epidemic but the fear of it. With society collapsing all around them--and an ultraviolent militia threatening 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.
