George Romero started the fascination with zombies. When he died, he left behind most of a zombie novel. Daniel Kraus finished it. This epic story follows the start of the plague to how humanity handled it.
I know I’ve talked about this before, but I am so happy this book is inclusive. Too often the horror genre is completely white. Race does not take a backseat in this book. It’s front and center. It’s a main plot line throughout the story.
I loved the characters in this book. You spend a lot of time hearing their backstory and becoming acquainted with them. Maybe too long. The book feels like a sort of zombie novella collection until the stories begin to intertwine. It did cause me to drift and not focus on this book like a should have. But stay tuned, because it’s worth it.
I was surprised at all of the emotions I had while reading this. From disgust to rage to happiness, this book will make you feel all the feelings. It’s so much more than your average zombie story. However, it’s still a zombie story. So if you have a problem with gore, you will struggle sometimes.
I’m so happy I got to read this one, thank you to Bookishfirst and Tor Books for my gifted copy.
