As usual, Jonathan Maberry has a stunner.
My problem is I get way too attached to characters. I know that in order for the story to move forward well, characters need to change and even go away.
But I hate it. Kills me every time. We won't even talk about who J.K. Rowling killed and made me cry over. But back to Dust & Decay.
It again is so much more than a zombie book, and more than a second book in a series (my theory is that second books aren't necessarily going to be good, just a way to get you the information you need and a traveling between one and three). Bravo, Mr. Maberry, bravo.

A lot has happened and to think this is just the 2nd book. I'm a big fan of the Imura Brothers and reading this totally satisfied your need for the development of their relationship. Wonder what happens to the next book.
MILD Spoiler:
My heart is broken. How do you go on reading these books now?!
I don't have a review in me for this one. It was good, as good as the first. Except no assholes, at least not ones who weren't supposed to be assholes.
Very good.

WHYYYYYY, why did you have to
Apart from that, it was another great zombie book. A few unrealistic scenes, but overall a great addition to the series and I can't wait to devour the next one.

I love this series! It has a great characters and a perfect combination of heart and zombie-slaying action. I like that it's more complicated than men fighting zombies--in these books, the zombies are often far from the most dangerous things facing the main characters. There's a surprise at the end that sets up the next book in the series well.
Well that was exhausting ! Intense action, horror filled pages, with a spark of love. This book had much more zombie action than book one. I thoroughly enjoyed it, well except towards the end when my heart cracked and I cried my heart out
another awesome installment in this super zombie saga. zombies, bounty hunters, and someone who reminds a few of the characters of old Charlie Pinkeye. And a few more ordinary people become warriors.
