I haven't been a huge fan of zombie books but am giving them another try. This story was a little different from the blood and guts chew up the living books. I liked the necromancy angle evens though what Asher learned was rushed somewhat. The story read a little more like a YA story but it's getting near Halloween so it did the trick for me. ( ) Overall, I liked the book. However, I picked it up because I thought it was a zombie story. It's actually more about the necromancers than it is about the zombies, so I would definitely put it into a paranormal genre. I also was not a fan of the main character's strong hormones. The way the story jumps between zombies and necromancers and his sex drive was just awkward, more often than not. I probably should rate the book a 3, since I find I have zero interest in the next book. I expect the zombies to be just background noise there, since the story is no longer about them, but the necromancers (and other magical beings). If you like Zombies - Desolation takes you into a different world of Zombies! Desolation had me on the edge of my seat a few times! I was very impressed with how Travis was able to draw me in and keep me there! You do not have to be a zombie fan to enjoy Desolation. When you have read Desolation you will be a Travis fan! I have to smile when I think about the book..Travis has taken zombies to a whole new place in my heart! Though not a stranger to reading paranormal literature, this was one of my first zombie books. Boy, I think I may be hooked! Movie experiences aside, Travis Simmons brought some even more chilling ideas up beyond the usual zombie apocalypse for me. From necromancers to living zombies and speeders and infernals, it was enough to keep me riveted to the story. The main character of Asher St. Paul was easy enough to fall in line with. Tired, alone it is hard not to root for him to get up and keep fighting against the zombie hoard ... as well as all the twists this story has to throw at him. Some of the action was a little hard to follow smoothly, but overall the story was good enough to keep reading. I received a copy in exchange for my honest opinion.
As I was reading - my question was "are necromancers able to control the zombies?" There comes a point when Asher realizes that her boyfriend, Connor is an infernal. He is a monster. Yet, Connor calls her by her name making her wonder how come he spoke. She shoots at him but never kills him.
***PRAISE FOR DESOLATION***"One of the significantly better zombie books I've read." ~ catskann64"A great read, could hardly put it down the whole time!" ~ NJS"Desolation isn't like a normal zombie book. Usually they are all the same but Travis Simmons created a book so unique I actually had to call my sister and tell her about it." ~ redneckmama89***"This new adult dark romance / fantasy series gives you a whole new twist on zombies with tragic love, necromancers, and an America gripped in a zombie dystopian nightmare."Asher St Paul thought it was just a typical zombie apocalypse like in the movies, until the necromancers crawled out of the woodwork. Since the undead have chased the living into hiding, the necromancers are able to roam freely in a new America of their making. Asher is seeking safe harbor. The need for safety is what drove him from his home in Philadelphia Pennsylvania before it was shelled. He has searched from quarantine to quarantine, always finding them overrun with zombies until he hears of The Refuge, a military compound in Binghamton New York. With his family and lover lain to rest by his own hand, he has nothing left to lose and gives everything he has to reach the safe haven. But questions arise when he reaches The Refuge, mainly, how has he been able to sustain multiple zombie bites and not change? He thinks he has found safety in the military compound turned quarantine, but he was wrong. Even now there is a necromancer trying to make The Refuge their kingdom of the dead.Buy DESOLATION today and join the necromancer apocalypse! Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
