Description

“Sharp writing and a plot that throws real teens into a deadly adult world. . . . I loved it and I’m sure fans of Alex Rider will love it too.” ” —Anthony Horowitz, New York Times bestselling author

“Enormously inventive and entertaining.” —Los Angeles Times

Mysterious institute. Contagious virus. Unsolved murder.

Adventure is in Tory Brennan's blood. After all, she’s the grandniece of world-famous forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan. Always up for a challenge, Tory and her science-geek friends spend their time exploring the marshlands of Loggerhead Island, home to the very off-limits Loggerhead Island Research Institute, where something strange is going on. After rescuing a stray wolfdog pup from a top-secret lab, Tory and her friends are exposed to a rare strain of canine parvovirus, changing them--and their DNA--forever. Now they are more than friends. They are a pack. They are Virals. And they're dangerous to the core. But are they unstoppable enough to catch a cold-blooded murderer?

    This is a great book. I only have two problems. The first one? The reading format. The way it's written. It bugs the crud out of me. And it's just like this. How I'm writing now. Right now. But, it does pick up, and you do actually get full sentences and paragraphs eventually!! But not for long. 😜😝😜 Secondly, the cussing just wasn't necessary, and I'm already bombarded from every direction in the real world, so, that just bugged me. 😕 Overall though, this is a good book with great, intriguing descriptions (I want to explore Loggerhead Isle for myself!;) and an intriguing plot. I'm actually not finished with the book yet, but I can't wait to read on and I will definitely be reading the others! 👍 Ps- I read the physical paper back version. 😘
  • Great!!!

    A bit slow in the beginning but that usually see that in most great books and games. I could definitely see this as a movie just as it is because it's not too long.

    Downloaded book for my son and started to read it. I was very caught up in the story and characters. I never ever finish a book before him but I did finish this one first.
  • Very enjoyable read.

    Even though I'm an adult reader of Kathy Reichs' books I found this one to be very enjoyable. The characters are likable and you find yourself rooting for them. I can't wait for the next book about these special high schoolers.

    Starts a little slow, but is a good read once it gets going. Wouldn't mind reading more of their adventures.

    Wasn't sure what to expect from Virals when I read it's summary. I gave it a chance and was pleasantly surprised by it. I barely had the book for a day and have already finished it. I had a hard time trying to put it down long enough to get a few hours of sleep. It had me hooked and I loved every minute of it. I look forward to the next book and definitely encourage any Kathy Reichs' fans of her other novels to give Virals a chance like I did. It was a great read!

    Good book. Honestly, not that captivating. Characters are cool, but the mystery was very interesting. Applaud to Kathy Riechs for the very interesting plot. Unpredictable. Like what another said, boring at the beginning. Worth the buy though.

    I just finished the book and it was such a great book. It had the mystery element, the paranormal, and the sci-fi. It should be a movie and there should be another one! Love it!
