Oliviya's living in a world debilitated by cancer. Where homes have been transformed to care for the sick and dying. No one goes out anymore as everything is done over handheld computers, including Digital School, which is where Oliviya meets Mikah. He's the only one who accepts her 'Sight', the ability to see people's auras, with non-chalance. But when they decide to meet, they become involved in a much bigger event then either of them could ever imagine. Oliviya is a fiery character, full of attitude and fierce determination, making her a joy to read about. Mikah is more quiet and reserved, though still a steely character. Putting them together makes for a great reading experience and the feelings that develop between them are nothing short of dazzling. Seeing Oliviya's power of seeing people's auras was especially interesting because they were described so vividly. Different colours, from dreamy blue to malignant red, all representing some emotion the person was experiencing. Mikah also had the power of telempathy, being able to sense and manipulate emotions, but I didn't get to experience that as strongly as Oliviya's. I liked the friendship that bloomed between them but the romance moved a little too quickly for me to realistically believe. The plot of The Apocalypse Gene is so incredibly unique. There were references to monster myths that have arisen over many years and from different times. We had ancient Greece, Egypt, and even the Bible. There wasn't a lot of focus on the monsters of the legends, but their importance was clearly understood. But they weren't the only supernatural creatures, there's a couple more, also very unique ones, that play a huge part in the big showdown. As I was reading I kept thinking, 'wow, this is insane!' There was a lot of action, basically one thing after another, but I couldn't help hoping for a scene where the characters would have sat down for a rest, take a breather and get to know each other some more. I really liked the doom feeling I got as parts of the bigger picture was revealed. I didn't know whether the story would end happily or in disaster. I wished I had known more about the cancerous outbreak, and how it had become so out of control though. When had the world given up and given clinics the permission to euthanize willing patients? I also enjoyed the union between such intricate technologies, from handheld computer screens to 3-D projections, and such old and ancient powers. It was just so cool! Bottom Line In one word The Apocalypse Gene is unique. Superbly original and full of non-stop action and an incredibly detailed story and characters. Up until the last page I was hooked, so much was happening, happy, sad, hopeful, I felt it all. Great book, glad I had the opportunity to read it!

It kills me to give this book 3 stars. It is almost a 4 star, but I feel Stephen King can do so much better. Not that I read a lot of his books, but I do like his non-scary stories. Yes, he has non-scary stories. This story is almost a love story, it goes into the make-believe (or is it?) land of the main character's husband, and his sad home life as a child. Why I liked it--it was interesting and several unexpected things happened. Why I didn't like it--I didn't love the characters at first. I got to like them a little more by the end of the book. Those of you who are saying to yourselves "Stephen King? But Liz, isn't that a little racy?" To you, I say that Stephen King is 500 million times better than those vampire books. Sorry, it's just..science.

I am going to miss Pendragon, this being the last book of the series. Ten wonderful books, so many interesting characters I hoped and expected the Traveler's to win out in the end; but I didn't have any clue as to how the story would end! Most enjoyable! Kudos Mr. MacHale! I enjoyed this series, I hope you create another wonderful series to follow!

Definitely the low point in the series. While it does have plenty of genuinely funny moments, the author's attempt to start a new story arc which relies more on narrative and less on his hallmark "wacky, inexplicable crap that makes up the universe, and also makes a funny tangent" style tends to fall flat in several places. In addition, the best character in the series makes his exit here, which is a shame.

excellent book in the same vein as The Omnivore's Dilemma. She adds a historical aspect to diet and health which is interesting.
