As fully half of the human race dies off at a frightening pace and life on Earth faces extinction, panicked people and governments struggle to cope with the global crisis. Infected areas are quarantined or burned to the ground. The few surviving women are locked away in hidden reserves, while frantic doctors and scientists race to find a cure. Anarchy and violence consume the planet. <p/>The plague is the work of a solitary individual who calls himself the Madman. As government security forces feverishly hunt for the renegade scientist, he wanders incognito through a world that will never be the same. Society, religion, and morality are all irrevocably transformed by the White Plague.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"A tale of awesome revenge." --<i>The Cincinnati Enquirer on The White Plague</i> <p/>"A speculative intellect with few rivals in modern SF." --<i>The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Frank Herbert</b> is the author of the 1965 science fiction classic, <i>Dune</i>.
