Brandon P. (brandonofwinterfell) reviewed on 5/4/2023

As a veteran of zombie series like Apocalypse Z, the Zombie Survival Guide, World War Z, and several others I went into this with high hopes, as it appeared to have won at least one award. However, the book was uninspired, boring, full of errors and weightless protagonists. The characters lacked any relatable motivation, and without getting into spoilers, are based on cookie cutouts of an abused woman and a bisexual business professional. Essentially, if the archetype is putting these two people together and saying âhey, plus there is zombies', that is fine but at least get the story around the characters into a readable place. Specifically: there are grammatical (spelling), punctuation and errors regarding character names; an inability of the structural and design facts to comport with reality (i.e. the building of defensive fortifications or even driving directions to be rooted in reality); and the characters jumping from one frantic and unsubstantiated motivation to another. I understand there can be high-hopes for a protagonist in a series such as this, and maybe that is on the reader, but outside of that the writing is one âyour loca chicaâ to âlets go broâ after another. It was tedious and head-ache driving to read, and there are innumerable other series better deserving your time and attention.
