An innovative take on zombies with lots of thrills, but sadly lacking in character development - and an ending.
great novel, creative and exciting take on the zombie genre, didn't really dig the ending though
Literally tossed it in my recycle bin this morning after reading about a quarter of the book. =/
This book is amazing. It makes me shoot a load of flaming semen from the head of my donger every time I read it.
Zombies that are able to drive cars and (un)dead fish that talk... hm.. nope, not my case
The only book Keene did that is good. It has cheese moments, but for the most part he has a good idea going. Also some really funny zombie animal scenes. It knows what it is, and doesn't try to be anything else
A very new take on the zombie survival genre (Talking zombies-- wtf?), but with most of the conventions intact. The book starts off at a swift pace and the action hardly slows down, but builds to a disappointing end that just screams "sequel".
