Carl S. Plumer

I received this book for free from the author through LibraryThing's member giveaway program.

First of all, I want to say that I absolutely love the cover art. Rob Sacchetto is a very creative artist and he captured the floating heads, zombies, Cathren & Donavan perfectly.

When I first started reading this book, I was loving it. I thought the story was creative and unique. I enjoyed how the story was going back and forth between Donavan's viewpoint and the news reporter, Zoe Krant's, interviews and updates on ATELIC Industries. The story unfolded in a very comical way and the writing was witty and engaging. One of my favorites lines is, "The place reeked of death and rot and all things unnatural. Which reminded him: they had hot dogs.(page 128)"

The story overall was good, loose ends were tied up, and things mentioned in the beginning reappeared at the end; but the story fell short for me. It seemed like Cathren and Donavan would run, she would get lost, he would run, and she would be found, they would get captured, they get away... then repeat process. I would have liked to know more about these two main characters. This book was filled with a lot of zombie action and Plumer's writing style added to the effect. I wasn't fond of the overuse of the F-word throughout. Not necessary. Perhaps would have made a good book for young adults.… (plus d'informations)
