The Three: A Novel (The Three #1) by Sarah Lotz

My friend Ann recommend this one. I am not sure if I should thank her, heck, I'm not sure you should thank me for passing on the recommendation to you, however, I am sure you should read this book.

The Three are the survivors of plane crashes. But not just any plane crashes. On one day there are 4 plane crashes. Three of the crashes have one survivor. One child. There is a suspected 4th survivor but no one can find this one.

There are people who think this was an alien controlled set of incidents and the children were switched with aliens pretending to be the kids.

There are people who think these crashes are the beginning of the end signaling the rapture is about to begin and that the children are the horseman of the apocalypse referred to in Revelation.

Then there are those who think these are just children who were lucky enough to survive tragedy.

But then strange things begin to happen around them.

So who are they really? How did they survive?


The style of this novel is that it is a novel within a novel. The story of the children is weaved together by an author telling the story of the crashes and the life of the children and those around them after the crash. It is an interesting style and added to the tension built throughout the reading of this one.

This is a good, creepy, mind-fuck of a book.
