Product Description:
In Chariot, the Horseman assailing mankind is Plague. A mutated version of smallpox sweeps the famine-ridden world, and people drop in their tracks. Only one place seems safe, Las Vegas, Nevada. But Las Vegas is the current home of the Horseman, who is searching one of the few men able to stand against evil, Travis. He has no idea he is the object of the Horseman's search, or that two others are also looking for him, eager to unite him with the heroes of Symphony and In the Mood as the end of the Millennium, and the end of the world, grows ever closer.

The third chapter in the four book series manages, after a rocky start, to surpass the excellent previous entry. Grant weaves another nailbiting tale that manages to both frustrate and enlighten the reader and sets the stage for a climatic showdown in the next, and final, book. I cannot recommend this series enough. Charles Grant is a terrific writer, which these books wonderfully show.

The world has already been devastated by the visit of two of the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Death (see SYMPHONY) and Famine (see IN THE MOOD) have left the planet on the brink of extinction. Now the third horseman, Plague, has begun his destruction of mankind.
A mutated strand of small pox is ravaging the world. Only Las Vegas is spared because Plague waits in the city to confront and eliminate Trey Falkirk, the one person who can save the human race. Trey has his own dilemma, as he is unable to leave Vegas, a city that he considers to be his prison, unless he wants misfortune to strike him. Soon, Trey will learn his role in the upcoming fight will force him to make decision that no one should have to make.
The third novel in Charles Grant's "Millennium Quartet" is an exciting tale that demonstrates the author's flair for making the evil side of mankind seems so real. Like the very first two novels, the dramatic story line is fast-paced, filled with action, and makes for an interesting reading experience. However, the novel does not require the reader to use much of their cerebrum snce this is an action oriened book. Still, fans of doomsday stories will fully enjoy CHARIOT and its two dark predecessors, while eagerly awaiting the visit of the last horseman.
