“That wasn’t any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.”
This is the way the world ends: with a nanosecond of computer error in a Defense Department laboratory and a million casual contacts that form the links in a chain letter of death.
And here is the bleak new world of the day after: a world stripped of its institutions and emptied of 99 percent of its people. A world in which a handful of panicky survivors choose sides—or are chosen. A world in which good rides on the frail shoulders of the 108-year-old Mother Abigail—and the worst nightmares of evil are embodied in a man with a lethal smile and unspeakable powers: Randall Flagg, the dark man.
*Banned for graphic violence, sexual content, and adult themes.
Read Alikes for The Stand: Swan Song by Robert McCamon; The Passage by Justin Cronin; Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel; The Road by Cormac McCarthy; World War Z by Max Brooks
