Rot & Ruin
by Jonathan Maberry
I'm surprised how much I liked this book. From the description, I figured that this would be a fairly stock YA zombie story (I do like zombie stories, though). While I found this to be not as good as the more adult-oriented World War Z, Feed, Deadline, or The Reapers are the Angels. I enjoyed this more than it's more youthful peers such as The Forest of Hands and Teeth.
Can't say much without getting too spoilery, but I thought this book's plot was particularly well crafted. The narrative and dialogue was solid with occasional passages that were very insightful. It has decent character design. The action scenes are well "choreographed." At a certain point, you will look at zombies a bit differently, Walking Dead Season 2-style.
I think my reserve copy of the sequel, "Dust and Decay," rolls into the library tomorrow. Looking forward to reading it.
