Girls*Heart* Books: Author Appreciation, David McAfee, Nasty Little F!#*ers!

From the bestselling author of 33 A.D. and Saying Goodbye to the Sun.

Eight scientists and one ex-marine accept an assignment to study the effects of deforestation in Aroostook County, Maine. It’s a routine job, and everything seems to be going according to plan. But when one of their number goes missing, leaving behind only a severed foot as evidence, former lieutenant Colby Phillips must lead an expedition to find him.

What they find instead is an entirely new species. A large breed of insect whose ravenous larvae display features and abilities never before seen in nature. The scientists’ amazement turns to fear when they find themselves at the bottom of the food chain. Can Colby lead the survivors to safety? Or is it already too late?

Of course, escape would be much easier if the dead would stay that way. *amazon.com*

These are DEFINITELY some Nasty Little F!#*ers! Invasion of the Body Snatchers meets Night of the Living Dead; for real! I am a huge B-horror movie buff (see previous sentence) and this book would be the PERFECT script for a FANTASTIC B-movie. McAfee does not waste any time introducing his “Grubs” into the story as we begin our journey on a camping trip; Husband wakes up, Wife is not in tent… there is something amiss in these woods, something deadly. Seriously… flesh eating grubs, woods, tents, camping and LOTS of warm bodies for them to feast on. It’s a fiasco in the making and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it play out chapter after chapter.

By the time I finished this book my heart was pounding in my chest; I also slept with the lights on that night. As with most of McAfee’s works, this is NOT suitable for children of all ages, Mature Content, Parental discretion is advised!! If you are a campy, gory, bloody, disgusting and down right creepy with just a dash of humor fan; this is the book for you. It got under my skin from the first page and I could not put it down (pun intended!)!

5/5 Quills.. Must Read!!
