I Am Legend - Richard Matheson

4.5/5 Just as long as it needed to be.

Differed from the movie quite a bit. Lots of vampires (dead and alive) running amock - Robert trying to figure out what makes them tick. Comes up with some pretty reasonable explanations for vampire stuff (hemorrhaging when getting stuck with a stake, allergic to garlic, psychological reason for crosses).

Gets infiltrated by the vampires and they end up catching him. Tough ending, what it needed to be.

Good read, would recommend and read again. Fast.
