The author keeps the story bounding along at a fast pace. Fairly predictable for the most part and it wrapped up very quickly but overall 3.5/5. By chance I was lured in by the initial 2 freebies but worth the additional dollar to finish the omnibus. Let's hope season 2 keeps the standard going šŸ‘šŸ‘

I stumbled upon this series when I saw I could read the first two parts for free. I was HOOKED! I have read Season 1 a few times and am still enthralled with it. I wasn't into zombies much before but this was a different twist involving them. It's a very thought provoking book that has a lot of logical details.

If your looking for a great series please purchase this one! It has great character development and a great storyline. I'm looking forward to the next omnibus of this series to come out. (I like binge reading so I'll wait until all of them are out.).
