The story starts off with Dekalb floating into Manhattan one month after New York has fallen to the zombie hordes. Why would anyone travel to New York during a zombie epidemic you ask? Well currently Delkab lives with his daughter Sarah in Somalia. He needs to get medication for AIDS for the warlords who run Somalia in order to earn his place in their society.

There’s many things that set this book apart from other zombie books in the genre. One very interesting thing is the way some zombies are able to hold on to their true consciousness. If you have oxygen flowing to your brain as you are “dying” you will return fully aware, theres more to it than that but I wont spoil the story.  Also why is the main character currently living in Somalia? Well think about it, there are a lot of weapons, people are trained through everyday life on how to live in poor conditions with danger looming. This is also another thing I liked about the story. Something I dont think most people would think, in most stories the epidemic seems to start in Africa. These are some of the things which make this book so interesting.

There’s really not anything I can think of to say bad about it. If you like zombie novels you NEED to read this one, of course then you will need to read the other two. Originally you could read this for free on the site (chapters were released every Mon, Wed, and Fri), but now you can also buy the print copy which I recommend in order to support free serialized novels.

Rating: 5/5
