The FiremanThe Fireman

From the award-winning, bestselling author of "NOS4A2" comes a chilling novel about a worldwide pandemic of spontaneous combustion that threatens to reduce civilization to ashes and a band of improbable heroes who battle to save it, led by one powerful and enigmatic man known as the Fireman. A terrifying new plague is spreading like wildfire across the country. There is no antidote. No one is safe. A mysterious and compelling stranger in a dirty yellow fire fighter's jacket straddles the abyss between insanity and death. He strolls the ruins of New Hampshire, a madman afflicted with Dragonscale who has learned to control the fire within him, using it as a shield to protect the hunted - and as a weapon to avenge the wronged. In the desperate season to come, as the world burns out of control, Harper Grayson must learn the Fireman's secrets before her life - and that of her unborn child - goes up in smoke.
