Zom-B

Zom-B

A fresh and fiendish new fiction series from the master of horror. At first no one believes the images on YouTube are real: zombies devastating Ireland, leaving villages in ruins and mutilated corpses in their wake. Teenager "B Smith" is far more concerned with surviving high school and a volatile home life than an invasion of hungry zombies. But as the carnage spreads across the U.K., B must face a horrifying prospect. While a lucky few may outrun the zombies, many will fall... and some will be forced to join the army of the undead.

Zom-B is a radical new series about a zombie apocalypse, told in the first person by one of its victims. The series combines classic Shan action with a fiendishly twisting plot and hard-hitting and thought-provoking moral questions dealing with racism, abuse of power and more. This is challenging material, which will captivate existing Shan fans and bring in many new ones. The protagonist is initially very unlikable, but this is by design. The exploration on racism and prejudice is explored through a zombie story, leading to an interesting plot-twist that may lead readers to the next book in the series, despite following a protagonist that could be described as an awful bully.

Yet another amazing addition to this series. Shan has managed to add his own gruesome twist to zombies with B's truthful narrative of a zombie while adding in his own type of twisted humour.

What the crap.. I'm so lost, made it about 60-70% through the book, there was like one chapter on zombies and that was it. All I got from this is racism.. and abuse.

2/5. And that's me being generous. The main character.....is just a horrible person with no redeeming qualities at all. The plot.....was so slow and god damn boring and the big "twist";? wasn't a twist at all. It was easy to figure out. The only reason it gets 2stars is because the last 30odd pages are actually not too bad. But doubt I'll read any more of the books. Unless I come across them super cheap. Or free. Lol.
