Dark, gripping, and impossible to put down—Slither pulls you into a world where survival isn’t just a struggle, it’s a gamble with humanity itself. Richard DeVall created a dystopian landscape that is as bleak as it is fascinating, balancing moments of tension with a thread of hope that keeps you turning the pages.

Esperanza and Darian are at the heart of this story, a young couple navigating love, power, and a secret that could change everything. Their dynamic is interesting, full of intrigue and quiet menace, making you question their motives at every turn. The Ninth House, a dome built to shield civilization’s remnants, is a well-drawn setting—a place where deception runs deep and survival is anything but straightforward.

Slither stand outs for its ability to mix dystopian fantasy, dark romance, and a touch of paranormal horror into something truly unique. It’s the kind of book that makes you question not just the fate of the characters but the future of humanity itself.

A must-read for fans of dystopian thrillers with sharp storytelling.
