Review:
This book
has a beautifully illustrated cover, which was deliberately why I picked this
book in the first place. The cover is a white page with red veins, which is
quite interesting and attractive.
The story
itself is understandable, yet I had to re-read several chapters over and over
again because I didn’t get the plot. But generally it’s about a world plagued
with disease because humankind became so corrupted with money and war. That is
why they got cursed by an ancient spell. Or something else.
The setting
is in United States, but some of the events took place in an aeroplane or
airport, where R lives. R is the main character of the movie, where he meets a
human Julie, and falls in love with her. He saves her life instead of eating
her brain, which the zombies consume to live on and also relish their victims
memories.
Much later
on, they found out that the curse reversed and the zombies turned back to human
again. They celebrated and hope for the new life together.
I would
recommend this book to vampire or paranormal book lovers. This is my first
zombie book and it is really quite interesting. Much less than some of the
fiction books that required some pushing onwards for reading on, this book was
the only one I couldn’t put down.
It is also
affordable at only 7.99 pounds. Which is around RM 35.90 in my country. Isaac
Marion is a talented writer and maybe one should read the other zombie books
such as New Hunger.
