The Altered (The Altered Experience, #1)

When the outbreak ends, Griffin must atone for what he's done in the name of hunger.

Griffin King is an ordinary high school senior dealing with typical teenage issues: a bratty little sister, overbearing parents, an obnoxious best friend, and the unrequited love of his long-time crush. But when a virus chews through a large portion of the population, Griffin soon finds himself on the wrong side of a horror story. After being attacked by an infected, he loses his identity?his only desire is to consume human flesh.

After months of the infected roaming the broken landscape of the city, a cure is found and a mass injection of antiserum is administered to the horde. Griffin finds himself one of the Altered, a small group of "ex-infecteds" who have been cured, but irreparably changed. Now he must learn how to restart his life in an angry post-apocalyptic society where race, gender, and religion don't matter anymore. Welcome to the new world. A world where people like him?people altered like him?are the minority.
