Blood Donors by Steve Tasane
BAD BLOOD. BAD DRUGS. BAD BUGS. WELCOME TO THE FINGER. A Splatterfest with a Social Conscience from radical new voice in teen fiction, Steve Tasane.
Blood Donors does something almost impossible - it combines an utterly convincing setting and all-too-human characters with a story of nightmarish intensityThe language hums with energy and the pace is relentless. -- Anthony McGowan A confident debut. The story succeeds in making the skin crawl and the flesh creep whilst also having more serious undertones around the nature of social and class prejudice. -- Jake Hope Books For Keeps A fast paces excitement-packed book ... reminding me somewhat of John Wyndham's 1951 classic The Day of the Triffids, this is a thoroughly enjoyable read The School Librarian
