Pandemic

PANDEMIC is the final book in the INFECTED trilogy (which also includes CONTAGIOUS). Needless to say, things move on to a slightly larger scale.

The whole world has been wiped out. There is nothing left but three roaches - one, a leftover doobie, the second, an actual roach (you know, the kind with the legs), and the third, some drummer named Max. I get metaphysical on this one, exploring the meaning of life and discussing what it means to be a menopausal woman fighting for rights in a man's world.

Not really. But it's going to be pretty friggin' cool.

 

I NEED CLOSURE DAMN

The Waz 6's picture

I NEED CLOSURE DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm in nursing school and every time I see a case or picture of any sort of eczema I think there are alien parasites involved and the patient is gonna try and kill me. i NEED to know how it ends if i am ever gonna be able to finish school and sleep at night ever again.


Pandemic

I just saw it in hardback.  Huge wave of self doubt washed over me - since I'm already in the doghouse for buying a new amp last week should I wait for the paperback?  Or should I mug an old lady and use her social security check to buy the book? 

I had intended to blow it off to protest the death of Dew and Scary Perry but my hands are starting to shake and I need my fix.   Ok Ok - I'll buy it.  But I'm rooting for the Aliens!


I was pissed

My three favorite characters died off. Amos, Dew and obviously Perry. I just finished Contagious today. I dont think I can go another year waiting for Pandemic.


i miss perry

Ive been to hell dragged along the grounds and now returned who need some displine

perry why did u die nooooooo


Just wondering

Well first, I love the book infected. I'm 13 and I literally could not put it down. I was reading while watching tv and making lunch. I finished it in 5 days. second, trust me, knowing that Perry dies does not spoil the intensity of this book. Keep reading!!!!! and lastly, I have been searching for the last half hour for the order of the books! Obviously I know infected is first but what are the next ones(in order please) I really want to keep reading!!!!!!!!Cool


order of the books

infected then contagious and when pandemic comes out that will be the third and final book


agreed! I accidently (while

agreed! I accidently (while looking to see the release of pandemic) spoiled perry and dew's death for myself while I was merely half way into the book. But I kept reading. It was worth it. Even though I knew it was going to happen, it was still cool.

 

A whole chapter dedicated to 3 seconds in time.

 

BEAUTIFUL


1. infected2. contagious3.

1. infected

2. contagious

3. pandemic (not out yet)

its just a litl bit obvious on the order . . . o n get ancestor n the rookie wen u get contagious, i kno ur 13 but if ur parents wont order u books thers sumthin extremely rong with them


Contagious is the next one,

Contagious is the next one, and is a direct sequel to Infected. The next one after that is Ancestor. It isn't a direct sequel to either of the other two, but it does take place after the events of Contagious, and it does feature a cameo appearance by a familiar face (er, name).

I'm thinking.......

if there's a drummer named Max, that leftover doobie will be the very first casualty.

Perry lives

maybe Perry survived by shielding himself from the blast in an old, lead lined refrigerator...

 

that's gonna get me shouted at

Can't Wait for Pandemic

How the heck is SS going to continue the Infected story when Perry gets killed off?

Yes I said it.  Too bad about the spoiler but read the book, the journey is the fun thing.  Besides, aren't you curious how?

Anyway, without Perry, I'm sure there were some brain cells fried to come up with the continuance of the story in Pandemic.  I'm supposed to be packing to leave for a 4 hour car trip in an hour but I saw Pandemic mentioned and hoped the audio was available to make the trip interesting (tried reading, but the driving got in the way).  Not here, but I'm looking fwd to it.  And SS: howcome you tour NYC only when I'm not around?

Dawsey is gone....

Ash's picture

When the FDO came to Australia, I was lucky enough to spend some time with him just hanging out. We spoke about Perry and Dew being such a hard act to follow. He mentioned that he was amused by the fact that people thought they weren't actually dead - but I can tell you he has promised not to wimp out and have some ridiculous plot twist that will undermine his credibility as an author. They are gone and are going to stay gone. In my book, that just means they have both achieved the legendary status reserved for heroes that have paid the ultimate sacrifice.

That said, I'm sure the FDO knows the shoes he has to fill, and we all know he is definitely up to the task of creating something/someone for Pandemic even cooler and hard hitting than we have seen so far.

For me, whenever I see that pair of chicken scissors in the kitchen drawer, rest assured I'll only be thinking of one thing - the big man and the fact that in the end, only a nuke could take him out...


perry

greg.r's picture

ok ppl sigler has stated many difrent times that perry is dead and gone n will not return . . . however it could wrk if perry was brought bak in a hallucination, like rocco in boondock saints 2. as for the roach thing, do u really think thats the case, y the fuk would any body jump that far ahead into the story?


perry

my beleif is that perry isnt really dead. he was too great of a character to kill off. he was described as a cockroach and everyone knows cockroaches can survive a nuke...it even says there are roaches in pandemic. so i still have faith that perry is still going to be kicking ass and taking names as usual


Perry is dead.

yanaros13's picture

Okay, one of two things. One being, Perry is dead. Gutierrez ordered the nuke to Dew's satphone, WHICH PERRY WAS TALKING ON.

"In a millionth of a second, a fireball formed and heated the air to 18,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit, nearly twice as hot as the surface of the sun.... Inside a quarter mile of the blast, flesh simply vaporized."

Perry's dead guys, i couldn't believe myself.

Hey Anon. Perry IS Dead

CrazzyWarrior's picture

Perry is dead. the FDO said it is. and the Evil Queen has stated she would not allow the FDO to bring back a dead character. Same with the others who are dead. Dead is Dead. We still have ome characters that are alive and the FDO can pla with them. I know that i, even tho i loved Perry, will feel let down if Perry returns. he can still have some influence over the story im sure but he wont be an active roll.

Man,

How can you say that when it describes Perry being VAPORIZED at the end of contagious.  However, I am wondering how Scott will pull Pandemic off though, because in killing off Perry he killed off the main villain!

 


Wrapping up?

secretcog's picture

Hey Scott. 

Your newest and final infection sounds like what Hollywood needs right now: a story line worth a f-ck!  Hope this trilogy gets picked up by the film industry that way they can stop remaking classics and ruining them!

 

I gotta say though... it's going to be hard without Perry and Dew.  You did a feat when you created those characters.  They're hard to forget.  I don't know about returning them from the dead though.  I'm more curious as to what characters will surface.

 

"Shhh...they're listening!"


It's not the same

I'm very intestested in reading this book, but why did you have to kill Perry and Dew. It's not the same without Perry and Dew. You only let live the characters i could care less about. Please at least bring Perry back to life. You have the POWER!

i ask how do you know? have you read the book already and not telling us something? as far as I know the book only exists in the FDO's head(which is a scary place to look im sure) But we wont know how it is tell it exists. Im sure the FDO has plans for this book and will blow us away. Im sure Perry and Dew will play a roll, it just wont be as the main characters. But even i dont know for sure untill the book comes out. Yes sad that they are dead but the Pandemic is coming and the world will need help...

The Question of When

Does anyone have an eta on when this book will be released?

I can't wait! I've read Infected and Contagious about three times since I bought them. Just gotta know how it all ends!

Can't believe the substandard podcasts i have to listen too waiting for the next does of the good stuff from our FDO

Pandemic

Why haven't Scott Sigler given any sort of ball park towards the release date of Pandemic. Infected and Contagious were both amazing and I am excited for the finally. I am a patient person and would prefer to wait as long as Scott needs in order to give the novel justice, but I am curious on the current status. 2010? 2011? 2012?

Pandemic

Can you please give some indication of when Pandemic will be released. Thanks

dude

can't wait. not kidding. i may die of anticipation, and no one wants that. I specialize in accurate interpretation of your pathetically unclear and dismally vague descritpion of what you think you want.

Killer? I agree

Twowire's picture
But Pretty? I think not! Ain't nothing pretty about the way the FDO goes about his killing! ;p
