Hi class!
I am currently reading Silver by Chris Wooding, a fast pace and exciting book about survival. Mortingham Boarding Academy is a school secluded from the outer world by dense forests and a substantial amount of land, making it impossible for escape when an unnerving infection begins to spread across campus. The infection causes people to become zombie-like metallic creatures, spread by being injured by someone else infected. Within an hour, more than half of the school becomes infected, and a group of kids blockade themselves in a classroom, with no plan of escape and the fear of what lie on the other side of the wall.
This sounds like a really good book! Where does the infection come from and does anyone have a cure to stop this disease?
Revealed halfway through the book, the infection comes from a nearby science lab, originally supposed to be a weapon until they lost control of it.
