Rot & Ruin by Jonathan Maberry
4.0
I recognize that this is a good book and I would have loved it when I was younger. Especially when The Walking Dead first came out and Zombies were a huge thing. Im just a little too old now to really love it.
There was only one character I didn’t find annoying and bratty, and that was the main characters older brother. I want to read his story, all the emotions I felt in this book were related to him. Yes, I did cry at one point. I think an entire series could be written about Tom (the older brother) and it would have a larger emotional impact and appeal to the older readers.
If I hear the term "Zom" one more time...
I’m not going to continue the series as I don’t think Tom will be in the rest of it the way I want to continue to explore his character. The other characters I just don’t care enough.
