I just finished reading "The Oasis of Filth" and I thoroughly enjoyed it! It was quite different from the majority of novels in the zombie genre, but in those differences were some truly great decisions by the author in creating a post apocalyptic environment, and mind set, that is unlike any other I have ever read, and I have read literally over a hundred books by now dealing with post apocalyptic worlds. From the concept that was developed on how the virus is thought to be spread, to how those potentially infected are dealt with, each of these ideas were completely unique ideas that I thought showed a great deal of creativity. The main characters were engaging, and the overall plot was one I enjoyed from the first page to the last... I really enjoyed all of the things that made this tale different from any other I have read to date. I would not only recommend this book to anyone who enjoys post apocalyptic stories, but even more so to those interested in a different view of how the end of the world just might turn out compared to the usual options we have come to expect in zombie novels! I am looking forward to reading more by this talented story teller if this first book of his is any indication of what I can look forward to in his other books!
