*actual rating - 3.5 stars*

This was a pretty good prequel to the contamination series. I really loved the mystery surrounding the virus and the cryptic messages that we had a little taste of.

Quinn seemed like a really fun character and I'm looking forward to reading more about her in the coming books.

I love post apocalyptic fiction, but I do feel like it's hard to be original because there's so many of these books out there. From what I've read in this prequel, I think this series is going to be fun, and hopefully it will continue to be different from all the rest.
