The Troop

"The Troop scared the hell out of me, and I couldn't put it down. This is old-school horror at its best." --Stephen King

This "grim microcosm of terror and desperation haunting" (Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author) follows a scout troop on a terrifying fight for survival when they come across a mysterious--and deadly--stranger in the Canadian wilderness.

Once every year, Scoutmaster Tim Riggs leads a troop of boys into the Canadian wilderness for a weekend camping trip--a tradition as comforting and reliable as a good ghost story around a roaring bonfire. But when an unexpected intruder stumbles upon their campsite--shockingly thin, disturbingly pale, and voraciously hungry--Tim and the boys are exposed to something far more frightening than any tale of terror. The human carrier of a bioengineered nightmare. A horror that spreads faster than fear. A harrowing struggle for survival with no escape from the elements, the infected...or one another.

Part Lord of the Flies, part 28 Days Later--and all-consuming--this tightly written, edge-of-your-seat thriller takes you deep into the heart of darkness, where fear feeds on sanity...and terror hungers for more.

Disturbingly stunning

I absolutely loved this book, I did not put it down! When reading I felt as if I were involved in the story myself and felt all emotions the characters felt. Cutter has a fascinating way of describing the mindset and background of the boys in this story and can make you uneasy with the disturbing, perfect detail in a tediously thoughtful way. This book will absolutely keep u locked in and you will continue to think about it...

Horrifying story of survival and the unknown

I very much enjoyed the many similes in this book. Nick Cutter painted a picture in my head with every sentence in this book. Horrified me, made me almost cry, but left its mark. Highly recommend this book. Though I do warn you of animals being harmed in this. But remember, this is only a fictional book. If you can stomach that, i highly recommend it. 👌

Phenomenal read!

I’ve seen hype about this book all over social media and let me tell you it did not disappoint! Disturbing and grotesque with a fascinating and captivating storyline. This book gave me very much Lord of the flies feel. I could not put it down. I’m a die hard horror and sci-fi fan it this gave best of both worlds. The characters are well developed and the authors description of their emotions and psyche during the book provoked...
