A fun, fast-paced sci-fi thriller that was exactly what I was in the mood for! Koepp's cinematic background definitely shines through and I could really see the action unfolding as I read. Fungal horror is always a good time and cordyceps novus is an especially terrifying idea. This book may not be high literature, but it's a damn good time!

What a fun ride. This was not high brow literature, but it wasn't trying to be; it was a fun, funny, sometimes gross romp.

I love unique twists on the zombie genre, and this was a good one.
