4.0

This isn't your typical action-packed zombie novel. If anything, I'd say it isn't about zombies at all. They're just the landscape these people are walking through and they don't matter any more than a river or a ravine that needs to be dealt with.

It's philosophy without pretension, this book. It's about connections, duty, love, loneliness, beauty, despair, and all the things no one talks about.
