New Wilderness

by Brian S. Matthews

By day it's cats and dogs, by night it's mice and rats, and if the birds don't get you then the insects will. But hey, that's life at the bottom of the food chain. One normal summer day, every mammal, reptile and avian on the entire planet unite with a single goal: The extermination of mankind. Three days later the insects join in, and it doesn't stop. It never stops. Ten years later, scattered pockets of humanity fight to keep flesh and sanity intact as they strive to unravel the mystery of what made the animals change, and more importantly, how to change them back.

*for those who have never really trusted animals... ;)
*it's set in Canada and the US, so there's chances that you know/heard of some of the places
*it's just really good, so READ IT! :)
*there's two editions of New Wilderness, the text is the same in both, but the covers are different ... I much more like this edition with the dog on the cover, versus the big ew-y eyeball edition

This is my favorite book. Animals take back the earth and try to extirpate the human race. It makes you look at your dogs and cats in a whole new light!
