A review by beachybookstack
Rise of the Governor by Jay Bonansinga, Robert Kirkman

4.0

If you've ever wondered about the Governor's past, this is certainly a good perspective to explore. The plot twist err 'switch' at the end didn't surprise me after the confrontation in the woods, but after assuming one thing (I won't spoil it for you) through the first 3/4ths of the novel, it was effective.
Some of the gore was....well, it was gore. If you like happy-fun time books then you're in the wrong place. Very descriptive but not overly wordy like some authors. I liked it, Road to Woodbury is next on my list! Then season 3 of TWD returns in February :D
