Synopsis

The year is 2011, and what starts as a pervasive and inexplicable illness ends up as a zombie infestation that devastates the world’s population. Taking the form of a biologist’s journal found in the aftermath of the attack, this pulse-pounding, suspenseful tale of zombie apocalypse follows the narrator as he flees from city to countryside and heads north to Canada, where he hopes the undead will be slowed by the colder climate. Encountering scattered humans and scores of the infected along the way, he fills his notebook with descriptions and careful observations of zombie behavior, along with terrifying tales of survival. This frightening contribution to the massively popular zombie resurgence will keep fans on the edge of their seats right up to the very end.

Over my semi-hiatus from Goodreads and book blogging while I tried to adjust to a crazy new reality in my real-life, I found myself really hard pressed to find time to devote to full novels. After a week or so of struggling to feel like I was keeping pace with larger books, I sought out something I......more

Goodreads review by Brendan

Jenny came home last week with a new zombie book for me. She said she considered it the "me" equivalent of flowers. Isn't that nice? Zombies is crafted as a journal that a scientist/birder keeps during his time trying to survive a food-additive-driven (perhaps) zombie outbreak. He has both narrative......more
