This review is from: Becoming Death: pilot episode of ENEMIES OF SOCIETY (Paperback)

A compelling novel of mistrust, conflict, and bloodshed as two conflicting beliefs threaten to tear apart society and change it forever, Becoming Death by John David is the first volume of the "Enemies of Society" series. Individual fighters caught up in the chaos must struggle to survive, and decide whether to obey leaders that may not be worthy of trust in this action-packed, darkly contemplative, and highly recommended reading.
