This post trilogy novella is not one to pick up since it gives away some of the plot twists in book three. Mahir travels to Australia to meet some of his employees while they show him a possible story at the rabbit proof fence. Now the fence is used to keep zombie kangaroos away from major population centers. The thing I liked about this wasn’t so much the story but how the Australians cope with the Rising and how travel has changed so much as well. A fun story but not one for someone new to the universe to read. Three stars and a half, in truth (how I wish we had half-stars for ratings!!!): this book reads more like a documentary of post-Rising Australia, rather than a new installment in the Newsflesh series and only the last part of the story adds a very welcome thrill of the kind that the original trilogy had given me. Hopefully there will be more in the future... Two things made this novella very cool: More Mahir Gowda, and more world-building. I am constantly in awe of how Mira Grant has thoroughly thought through this world. And I'm very impressed that she came up with a solution to the zombie problem for Australia that is different from other parts of the world and very, very appropriate. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

HTML:A new Newsflesh novella from the New York Times bestselling author that brought you Feed, Mira Grant. Post-Rising Australia can be a dangerous place, especially if you're a member of the government-sponsored Australia Conservation Corps, a group of people dedicated to preserving their continent's natural wealth until a cure can be found. Between the zombie kangaroos at the fences and the zombie elephant seals turning the penguin rookery at Prince Phillip Island into a slaughterhouse, the work of an animal conservationist is truly never done â?? and is often done at the end of a sniper rifle.

I feel that Mira has done an excellent job of portraying the Australian landscape, wildlife, and attitude in this novella. As usual it's by turns humorous and terrifying, as well as thought-provoking. The pacing is sharp; I don't think there was a single unnecessary word in the entire piece, it was so tightly written.
As it contains spoilers for the original Newsflesh trilogy, I highly recommend that you read that first, but if you've already read it, then follow it up with this novella as soon as you can. ( )
