The year was 2014. We had cured cancer. We had beat the common cold. But in doing so we created something new, something terrible that no one could stop. The infection spread, virus blocks taking over bodies and minds with one, unstoppable command: FEED.
NOW, twenty years after the Rising, Georgia and Shaun Mason are on the trail of the biggest story of their lives-the dark conspiracy behind the infected. The truth will out, even if it kills them.
A pretty good book. I will disagree with Paul there about it being a first draft. Is it a bit meledramatic? ehh sure but they are young adults so everything tends to be melodramatic. (heh raised 2 kids sent them to college I seen it) The story is excellent, and in the end thats the most important thing. The readers do a good job being in character.
First: this story is geared towards the teen-young adult group. Second: if you liked James Patterson's styling with the Maximum Ride series then you'll like this---if you're into zombie stuff. Third: multiple plot twists - good, bad and ugly. Bring on the Sequel!
The premise of this book is great. Everything else about it is a colossal failure. Essentially, it's a political thriller set 25 years after a zombie outbreak. Sadly, the plot "twists" are obvious, and the dialog is garbage. Seriously, Marlon Brando and Orson Welles couldn't save this dialog. It's one melodramatic conversation after the next. The interstitial material is stiff exposition on the generic zombie world that the characters inhabit. Don't waste a download on this book. There is much better zombie fare available.
