Waking up in a military complex, months after zombies attacked school, B has no memory of the last few months. Life in the UK has turned tough since the outbreak, and B is woven into life- and battle- in the new military regime quickly. But as B learns more about the zombies held in the complex and the scientists keeping them captive, unease settles in. Why exactly was B saved? And is there anyone left in the world to trust? I enjoyed this one more than the first. It's still delving into racism, but instead of color/religion this time, it's taking it further with zombies who have been recreated (memories returned). The experiments and doctors are compared to Nazis several times for good reason. It is not exactly the same moral message of the first book with racism, but a different perspective, covering two bases. The protagonist is more likable this time around too, since she was such a bully and obstinate in Zom-B. Here she has regrets and she's learned. Oh, and soup brains? Eyeballs? Shan stays gross like his other series, but he also stays inventive and consistent.
