fan to fan This is a well writen book that is done in a diary set up which was enteresting. The book does a good job of staying with the old rules of the zombie which is what i liked about it, but he also puts a few minor but very good twist of his own when it comes to the undead. I am a huge fan that the charicter is a servicemember which makes for good tactics and use of skill. Also the fact that the author is as well shows in this book i realy respct that. I would tell anyone who is a fan of zombie's to pick this up and i am realy looking for the sequal.
Day By Day armagedom First of all, English is not my mother tongue, even so, this what i think. Facinating book, great read, at the end I feel so scare... I was not trilled at the book cover, but just reading the introduction, it hook me in, the characters are well develop, and the history is fluid and credible.
A Fast Food Zombie Book - not great, but good for a quick bite Nothing really new or groundbreaking in this book. The only interesting idea, without hopefully giving too much away, was the affects of radiation on zombies.
Being written in a journal format makes it easy to read an entry, go do something else, come back and read another, go do something else, repeat. I finished the book in two hours while scanning some documents. While books like World War Z and the Morningstar Virus books spank this one, I have come across some zombie stinkers much worse than this book.
I have some issues with the fictional author of the diary being military and spending his time cleaning guns and lamenting his situation instead of modifying his environment or making more use of the knowledge that fire will kill the zombies. If you have time to lean, you have time to clean.
Well written Zombie Book - With a military angle I've read a bunch of zombie literature over the years, and I accidentally stumbled across this gem! Written by active military J. Bourne, the book takes the form of a action-packed diary written by a survivor of a zombie plague. Some very interesting plot twists and scenarios, and the fact that it's contemporary, well written and a good read combines to make this a sure classic in the making! The second volume is due out here sometime in 2008, so support the author and pick up a copy of volume one - you won't be disappointed if you enjoy zombie literature.
Best Zombie Book I have EVER read!!! Quite simply the best zombie book I have ever read. I am a huge fan of the sub genre of zombie horro in general. This book gets the job done.
First, the first person perspective you get from this is great. The author writes this as told by the journal entries of the main character. It is so well done you feel like you may actually be reading a zombie holocaust survivor journal! It really gets you wrapped up in the story.
Second, the action moves quickly. Let's face it, you are reading zombie fiction to be entertained, and fast! This isn't War and Peace, nor does it try to be. The action moves quickly, but the author does a great job on character development, especially the two primary people.
Third, and this is the most exciting part for me, he really addresses the "logistics" of a zombie plague. The planning, rationing, equipment the character needs, etc. pulls you into the fantasy. I always wonder, what would you need in a real zombie outbreak? A fictional problem for which the author gives practical real world answers... makes the whole story feel more "real"
A fast read, great action, and all zombie... what more could you ask? I am "dying" for the sequel.
