Just when I thought I knew what abyss he was leading me across, he knocked the bridge out from under ... I think I screamed the whole way down ... INFECTED is a marvel of gonzo, in-your-face, up-to-the-minute terror.”
—Lincoln Child, New York Times bestselling author of Deep Storm and Death Match

INFECTED SYNOPSES:
Perry Dawsey is 6-foot-5, 265 pounds of angry ex-linebacker. He knows all too well that if he doesn't control his quick temper, people get hurt. Through constant focus, he has locked his violent past away in the deep dungeons of his mind.

The infection changes everything.

Strange microscopic parasites tap into Perry's bloodstream like tiny little vampires. They start as bright orange blisters, but soon take the shape of triangular growths just beneath his skin. The "Triangles," as Perry calls them, try to control their host by manipulating hormone levels and flooding his body with neurotransmitters -- imbalances of which cause paranoia, schizophrenia and excessive aggression. As Perry begins a desperate battle to cut the Triangles out of his body before it's too late, his self-control dissolves into raging, murderous madness.

INFECTED REVIEWS:
"Part Stephen King, part Chuck Palahniuk, Infected blends science fiction and horror into a pulpy masterpiece of action, terror, and suspense. Three recommendations: don't read it at night, or just after you've eaten a full meal, or if you're weak of heart. You've been warned!"
James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of The Judas Strain and Black Order

“Sigler is the Richard Matheson of the 21st Century…smart and creepy, INFECTED is a flawless thinking-person’s thriller. Bravo to a bold new talent!”
—Jonathan Maberry, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Bad Moon Rising and Ghost Road Blues

"Horror mavens rejoice! INFECTED is a revelation -- a novel that lives up to its hype. From page one, the story of a mysterious smart-virus that turns its hosts into deadly drooling drones creeps up on a reader like the ratchet of a roller coaster climbing toward its inevitable crest. Sigler brings the folksy character detail of Stephen King, the conceptual panache of Clive Barker, and the oozing, shuddery pathologies of a David Cronenberg movie. Zombies, spies, conspiracies, and gallons of goo make this the fastest read in the west! Highest recommendation!"— Jay Bonansinga, National Bestselling author of SHATTERED, TWISTED, FROZEN, and THE SINKING OF THE EASTLAND

"Sigler has a unique talent for keeping readers on the edge of their seats; I absolutely had to know what was going to happen next. Infected is full of mayhem, action, and gore--and you won’t be able to put it down."
— Dave Wellington, author of 13 BULLETS and the MONSTER ISLAND trilogy

"Scott Sigler's Infected is a bucking pulp pony that throws you this way and that, and just when you think you've got your balance, that ole pony bucks the other way. All in all, one hell of an exhilarating ride, and highly recommended." —Joe R. Lansdale, World Horror Convention Grand Master and six-time Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Bubba Ho-Tep and Lost Echoes

Amazing, a suspense, addictive,fantastic! the best book i've read in my 14 years and trust me i've read 100 of books so far!

Scott Sigler THANK YOU for creating this book! If only both these books were a movie......damn if it was people would Sh** in their seats!

I was waiting for more nocturnal Patiently .....mostly like any junkie waiting for his next fix. when I decided a rerun would be better than no FDO at all. My second listen to infected was better than the first. You a re a master Scott I missed a whole lot of stuff the first time around, I was itching from the first minute. Now I just finished Nocturnal 32 and it was great too. I appreciate the difficult times you have been going through and thank you for any content you have managed to get out at all. But I need more.... more!! just finished chapter 63 of infected and NEEEED the rest. Is there a place where I can download the whole Infected audiobook?

Infected

When is the new chapters coming to Podiobooks.com? Oh the itch for more is killing me...

Awesome book

Infected was one of the most addicting books I have ever read. Scott Sigler really out did himself on this book. The concept of the triangle infection was absolutely captivating.

Infected

This book is tangible proof that someone can be utterly derranged and yet can achieved literary excellence! Prepare yourself for some sleepless nights spent scratching at your skin and wondering whenever you see the word "triangle" if it has some hidden meaning. Disturbing and amazing mixture of Science and Horror "Buys this book NOW NOW NOOOOW sonofabitch"

Couldn't kick more ass!!!

I started this book one night, read three chapters, dreamt about it all night and then couldn't stop thinking about it until it was done.  CAN NOT WAIT for Contagious!!!!  I'm making a paperchain to count down the days!!!Surprised

horRor gudness

I just finished the book, literally two minutes ago. I usually watch horror movies and don't read that many horror books, mostly mafia books. I have to say that the reviews left me wondering so much that I had to read it. I bought it Tuesday and finished it today, Friday. What a great read. From beginning to end, this book kept me wondering just how things would progress. I was surprised by how logical the path of madness was for Perry Dawsey. I want to know more about the other creatures Dew saw. I'm glad to see that there will be another book for this fantastic and horrifying story. From one SF kid to another: Well done Scott. :P

Dude this book was

Dude this book was AWESOME!!!!!!!- it rocked so hardcore- i got it as an unproofed version and it was probobly one of the best books that i have ever read. it was massivly graffic yes but absolutly awesome. great man great -----write another!!!!!!!

INFECTED: A fantastic read...

INFECTED is a cruel, powerful, thrilling and easily believable rollercoaster ride. It's absolutely fantastic; I eagerly await CONTAGIOUS.

Anger subsiding

This book was addictive. I couldn't put it down, I finished it just as I was going to bed... though towards the end, I thought I might also go nuts and hurt someone. Thank god there will be a sequel.

I may have already said this...

Fan-freakin-tastic!

Just finished reading Infected - read it in 3 days. Might not be impressive to most, but for a mom with two kids under 5...an incredible feat! Great writing, funny, and believable. Loved the character detail and Perry was a blast...I hope some of his sanity comes back in the next story though...the voice of his daddy was getting a bit annoying. Thanks for opening my eyes to your work, and your site. I'm looking forward to discovering more great stories here. Congrats on MAJOR success!

Best Summer Read!

This book hooks you from the very beginning and won't let go! Chapter 38 - Couch Potato Bug had me completely freaked out! Great poolside reading. Would love to see the movie version of this!

It makes me itch

Infected=revolting

Sigler, This was by far one of the sickest, most revolting stomach churning, sickest, bile-in-the-back-of-my-throat, gut wrenching, agonising reads I have had in a long long time.... I loved it... couldn't put it down and peeled through the book in two sittings. Lets say I have a phobia about parasites and you have helped to give me a reason why... God help those characters in the sequel... I don't think clearasil is going to cut it.... seriously, you hooked me from page one to the end... just finished Earthcore too... as an avid scifi reader - asimov, clarke, card- its refreshing to see someone take the genre to a unique category of its own. You can't have my soul, Sigler, but I would love to be a "junkie"...

Hooked like a fish!!!

Since i am a person who loves to read about such things as:Chemtrails,Mount Weather,MK-Ultra, and Haarp to name a few conspiracys,This book was right up my alley.I could not put it down. Your my new hobby ;) Cant wait to see where else you take the story in Contagious.

Movie....

Love the trailer.... And will wait for the movie.... Oh yea... This HAS to get on the big screen... And if not... IT could easily be adapted for a broadway theater play.. production. Or what ever they're called...

Just Fininshed reading

Just Fininshed reading infected and it was so good i couldnt put it down....finished the reading in a day & a half.........I hope u really are going to write a sequel to this book!!!

Fun ride

I listened to this on one of my many road trips in the past year. I'm a 2003 graduate of Eastern Michigan University and lived on the same road as Perry. For starters, I was thrilled to do a little time travel as Perry navigated around Ann Arbor while seeking help. I later found myself trying to figure out who he would call to help take care of the Triangles. Having lived in the area I jumped on the "Triangle Management" train of though before the author stated it. I think that's a perfect example of what kind of story this is--it draws the reader (or in my case, listener) into the story, trying to figure out a solution to the problem along with the characters.

Infected

Kudos to your book Sir. A very entertaining read right up till the end. One of those books that you don't mind paying the price for. Thank you!! Is there a sequel in the works?

shudder

infected

this is scarey funny and really a good read well done

This book is bonkers!!!

I just finished "Infected". Amazing read. AMAZING! Halfway through I realized I HAD to reach the end so I stayed up and sprinted through the last 140 or so pages. Count me in as a new fan of your writing.
