After finishing the book, I really don't understand why it's called The Passage, I'm not a native speaker so it's maybe some kind of wordplay? Anyway, I'll recommend this as a really good horror/thriller story, despite the true ending is kinda missing. Cronin combines two classic and bit overused literary elements–vampires and the end of the world–and spins them into something entirely fresh and new, and to me this was like a combination of King's The Stand and Dark Tower, McCarthy's The Road and a bit of the Guillermo del Toro's The Strain, all the good parts. 7/10

One thing that I disliked is how we're suddenly introduced to a whole new set of characters, I feel that the author missed the chance to write a bit more about conflict with infected, but oh well. Once you get used to new characters and get to know them better it's just another good part of the story. Another (big time) thing that was really a let down is how the book ended, I really wanted to know what happens with Peter, Alicia, Amy and rest of the crew...
