 The dead are rising, and if someone doesn’t stop them before the infection spreads any further, G & C London, Private Investigators will be knee-deep in the zombie apocalypse before you can say “mmm, brains”. Gobbelino and Callum are on the case. Just as soon as they get through dealing with disapproving reapers, irate magicians, zombied chickens and a small internal case of undeadness. 

This is the second Gobbelino novel I’ve read, and I love that the main MC is a cat. I feel like the cat behavior could definitely have been more catty, but overall it was a good read. I’d say it was cozy but can zombies be cozy? It’s fast paced, funny, and light enough to be a great palate cleanser between heavier books.
