World Departed by Sarah Lyons Fleming

5.0

Another winner from Sarah Lyons Fleming! If you're into military-type shoot-'em-up zombie thrillers, then this isn't the book for you. But if you're into character-driven fiction (even if you're not into zombies), then you should definitely check out Fleming's work.

There are people in these books -- real, well-drawn three-dimensional characters. There's heartbreak and drama, but there's also laugh-out-loud humor. And Fleming has spent enough time in this world that she has a good handle on her particular brand of zombies, their behavior, and the spread of the virus.

This is the start of a new series set in the Pacific Northwest. Her other two series are set in the same world, but you do not have to read them to enjoy this book. However, I'd recommend that if you like this book, you grab those up, too! You will love them!

By the way, I was a proofreader for this series, but I went ahead and bought the Kindle book anyway (and I'll buy it on audio when available). Good writing should be financially supported.
