Okay, look, I get that this book is supposed to be funny because it's outrageous. I do. In fact, that was one of the things that attracted to me to the book. However, within the first chapter I was already rolling my eyes and could feel the irritation building up in me. What is supposed to be wittily amusing writing is just... Well, being nice, let's just say it's not the best writing I've ever read. In one paragraph, the word 'zombies' is used 4 times. It's a zombie book. You don't have to constantly repeat the word. It needs proofreading for spelling and punctuation errors at minimum. I'd suggest a very firm editor with a very large red pen for the best case scenario.
I'd be more worried about the legal repercussions. In fact, this continues like this throughout. It's like there's absolutely no thought or worry about consequences of people's actions in this story. In order for something to be entertaining, it needs to be at least a little bit grounded in reality. From the undead chimp who can somehow magically write "What are your orders" with a pen and a piece of paper to the thirty-six foot great white, this is pure absurdity. It feels like the author didn't bother to fact-check a single line in this jumble of words and punctuation marks. I even tried adjusting my mindset to 'so bad it's good Syfy movie' and this book still failed to do anything other than irritate me.
Zombie Park may just be the worst zombie book I've ever read. It has absolutely nothing other than the idea going for it. Actually... this might be in the running for the worst book I've ever read, period. Dear God. I can't believe I actually forced myself to finish it.
"He had to notify the press of the zombie park coming within a year. They knew the news would cause some protesting from the public, but plans were already in the work to combat against it."
