(CW: SV)

spoiler

Felker-Martin constructs the monsters of the novel beautifully: the men are "matted, filthy," "the skin flaking and greasy," mouths "dripping nameless dark fluid." They "[gulp] down meat in chunks" "like an alligator horking down a fish." They exist only to consume flesh and to rape, running in packs to chase down anyone that they can smell on the wind.

That kind of serotonin generation would bring tears of joy to peterson-pain 's eyes.

It's not a fresh concept lol, although the book does cute things with it now and then
