Review: Disappointing and woefully amateurish
Rating: 2 out of 5

Not a lot to like here:1. Rambling storyline that doesn't go anywhere useful and populated by thinly developed characters who ultimately I couldn't care less about.2. Gung-ho, straight arrow young Americans who would not be out of place in a Starship Troopers re-make: nauseating in their 1950's Leave to Beaver squeaky cleanliness. C'mon - where are the flawed characters suffering from PTSD, free floating anxieties and channelled Gen X-Y me-first values?3. Amateurish writing style.  The author tries and plugs in the effort, but unfortunately it reads like a high school creative writing essay.  Limited vocabulary, thin contextual descriptions and overly simplistic telegraphed character dialogue are all crippling problems in this regard. It was so bad that I admit to skim-clicking through large sections thinking "Please let this end soon."4. There are for-fun FanFic.net authors who can write far better zombie stories than this. A constructive suggestion is for the author to sign up there, put his work out for review and improve so that he can get closer to fulfilling his personal aims.
