The Road to Woodbury by Robert Kirkman

4.0

The Road to Woodbury is the second installment in The Walking Dead series. I definitely thought it was a lot better than the first one. Especially since it had the same narrator as before and I feel like I was less annoyed with him this time around. Probably because I was prepared for it and how he spoke.. but I ended up liking and enjoying the book.

In this story, it's about a group of people travelling to Woodbury, which is a small town with actual humans living there. Along the way, they are constantly dealing with zombies and killing them. I almost wanted to gag at some parts but was intrigued to see how this one was going to end. When we get to Woodbury we see the Governor again.

Now I haven't seen every episode or season of the actual tv show The Walking Dead but I do remember when they actually got to Woodbury and how the people who lived there acted. Even the Governor was strange to me. Yes, I still thought that when I was listening to the audio book of the first book in this series.

Overall, it was a really interesting book. I haven't really been in to zombies books until this year and I find this series so fascinating. I can't decide who's more evil though: zombies or the humans? I mean the residents of this town were just something. I didn't like everyone there but then again I felt that exact way watching the show. Even though I don't like every character I'm meeting along this wonderful series journey, one can feel bad for them. For instance, what they are going through and how they are living can't be easy. Every day is filled with difficult decision making.

I can't wait to dive into the next book. I hope they keep getting better and better.
