I received a free copy of this book via Hidden Gems and am voluntarily leaving a review.

A vivid tale of friendship and overcoming obstacles. All the characters are well rounded and are true to their characterization. The tension is believable and isn’t just inflicted on the characters. The characters must work to solve their problems. I did find it confusing the text referred to beasts zombies, monsters, mutants, creatures, and I think something else. Is this the sort of thing that requires a beastery?… (meer)

This was a great book by an author I had not heard of before, but I really enjoyed the plot and the characters. I'm a sucker for any apocalyptic, dystopian or zombie book, and this one is a great edition to those genres. As in most books of this nature, it starts off fast and the pace doesn't let up. Since this book is labeled as Book One, I can only assume there will be more to follow and I, for one, will be along for the ride. This is a quick, entertaining read that you won't want to miss.

If you’re into post-apocalyptic, zombie type books then this might be up your alley and worth a look particularly since it’s the first in a series so there’s more to come.

The plot starts off with a bang and keeps exploding out as the world and characters have to adjust rapidly to keep up with all the sudden changes. It reminded me a lot of some of the action movies I’ve seen because it has that same style where there is a lot of focus on the big scenes but not much exploration of the smaller details. Such as there never seemed to be a decent reason for the big cataclysmic event, you’re just supposed to accept it’s happened and move on.

The character work wasn’t too bad particularly the development of the familial relationships; the author did a good job of creating realistic interactions and examining how people might react when everything is going to hell. The characters didn’t start off that great but definitely got better as you push deeper into the story so you just have to start off accepting things as they are.

The zombies seemed to follow all the prototypical behavior we’ve seen before, sometimes you have to just go with it when it seems implausible.

It has a few problems so I can see this being one of those books people are either going to love or hate. I’m holding out my final opinion until I read more of the series because I’m hoping a lot of the holes in the storyline will be answered in a later book.
