Never Say Die: Stories of The Zombie Apocalypse by Stevie Kopas, Meghan Shena Hyden

4.0

Overall very satisfying. I found the stories to have a nice variety to them, skipping back and forth in time from years after society has fallen to just before and during. The clever thing Kopas does with her take on zombies is use them to tell surprisingly human stories. It's not just about the apocalypse, it's about exploring relationships during the apocalypse. A man looking for his lost sister. A couple in the middle of a nasty divorce. A lowly man hiding a forbidden love. These are things people can relate to and empathize with in any setting, but they're given a new spin by setting them in a world of horror. At the same time, if you're a fan of the genre and enjoy seeing chaos and bloodshed, there's still plenty to be found.
