This is my first zombie novel, and I must say, I enjoyed it. There is more to this story than zombie attack after zombie attack. This story is about repairing a relationship between two brothers. It's also a story of love, family, and hope in a world overrun by reanimated corpses.I am a huge zombie ...

I'm sure everyone knows what I'm talking about when I say that reading a new book by one of your favourite authors is kinda nerve-racking.

Fourteen years or so after the zombie apocalypse. Benny has just turned fifteen and has to get a job or his rations will be halved. He doesn't really want to do it, but it turns out to be the only thing he's good at: zombie killing. The family business. This book was more of an adventure story and l...
