I’ve read several of the Abrahams books and they aren’t bad, by any stretch, but I find myself getting antsy mid way through this book. It definitely could be me, but I need a little more action to maintain my attention. I know the “villain” in the book is the scourge itself, but I think I need more of a real bad guy for our heroes to confront. So this book was probably just a bad choice on my part.
