The Dead by Charlie Higson
4.0
What a surprise. After only feeling "meh" after reading the first one, it was a complete shock that I loved this one.
It takes place about a year before book 1. I know, shocking right? But what a great thing to do. It was wonderful to see how it all came to be - the two camps, some of the people and how they all divided. it was even interesting to see how it all began.
And the prologue about the kid in the video. Completely creepy and disturbing and sets the stage for the whole book. I love that this author never holds back any punches - you honestly never know who is going to be alive or dead/turned by the end!
