Zombie Action December 1, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book was really fun to read. I could not put it down. The action draws you into the story so much that you cannot wait to find out what happens next. Obviously Bourne is not a very experienced writer, but there are only a few awkward sentences that stick out. I do appreciate, however, that he directed the story toward adult readers. Read this book if you are a fan of the Zombie genre.
Excellent! November 25, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an excellent read that you won't be able to put down until you've finished! Whether you like your zombies NOTLD slow or 28 Days or 28 Weeks Later fast and aggressive, it doesn't matter. You are gonna love this book! Get in a comfortable chair in a quiet room with nothing to disturb you, sit back, start reading, and prepare yourself for one helluva ride! Before long this book is going to swallow you up! I hope J.L. comes out with a sequel soon!

the book shoulda stated that it was part 1......it left me hanging for an ending, and the rest of the middle. its like leaving the theatre right when the movie starts getting good.
My personal favorite post-apocalyptic novel, zombie or otherwise. October 31, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Never drags. You won't be able to put this one down. Free time will be well spent reading this book!
Surprisingly good October 24, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I felt this was a surprisingly good novel from a first time writer. The format is of a personal journal, complete with spelling and grammer errors, kept by a survivor. With the story written from the first person perspective, and without to much detail about the survivor, it is very easy to "fall into" the story. It also focuses mainly on what is going on directly around the character; you have little idea what is happening in the rest of the city, country or world.
I do have a few small criticisms. I don't feel the characterization of the supporting cast is very good. I just can't imagine what they look like, if you know what I mean. And the ending is much more abrupt then I would have liked.
At the end of my edition is a beginning chapter of a follow up book. To be blunt I hope this will be heavily re-written and edited. It's just not up to the standard of the first.
