This book was gifted to me by the
author for an honest review. Thank You.
I feel like I know zombies pretty well.
I own a copy of the Zombie Survival Guide. I have watched every
episode of the Walking Dead. I've watched a Romero movie or four. I
know that you aim for the head. And I know you need to get out of the
cities but don't take the roads. So do I feel confident that I would
survive a zombie apocalypse? Naw. I wouldn't last a week.
Days with the Undead: Book One is a
journal of survival. It begins on day 3 and ends on day 31. There is
an ER doctor, a forensic pathologist, a sniper, an intelligence
officer, and an environmental scientist. They are all zombie fans and
zombie survivalists. Weapons experience, an expert in edible plants,
a map collector and “a
mechanical and technological junkie”. “...just a group of people
trying to stay alive.”
Like
I said before, I like a good zombie story. I like the saga of the
fight for survival. Days with the Undead had a really good
description of the zombie outbreak as told by the ER doctor. I liked
how each character had a story to tell about their life, their
sacrifices, their mistakes and their pain. They were each sympathetic
and I liked them all. Crazy stuff was happening with the outbreak and
each day the narrator asks for her readers to pray and fight for the
living. The group doesn't really have a plan. They just want to go
somewhere safe. They move from Canada to the United States and back
to Canada while the narrator searches the internet for a safe place
and posts her journal entries. This is a well written zombie tale
with unique elements. 4 stars.
