Review: Review for all 8 episodes
Rating: 4 out of 5

I did like this book (all 8 episodes) - story is above average and author has an above average writing style, interesting with good character development and no glaring spelling or grammar errors.  I liked the way it ended and how it built up to the end.  Canada location was interesting.  Zombies were a bit more of the "thinking" kind - not really a fan of that but it did work for this story.  I recommend it, but you do have to read all 8 and not wait a long time between episodes since each one starts where the other left off with no recap (it's sort of like ending a chapter & then putting the book down & forgetting about it for a few weeks).My one complaint is - what is this "episode" or "Season 1" style of writing????  I see this a lot, especially in zombie books or self-published Kindle books, each episode runs between 40 to 100 pages.  You get the first one for free and the rest cost around 99-cents to $1.99 each and most of these run 10 "episodes" per "season" - add this all up and you can buy a Stephen King or Dean Knootz new release.  Sometimes, like with this series, they "bundle" several together as time goes on (I got  #1 for free quite awhile back, resisted buying the rest once I added it up, just recently found the 1 to 4 bundle for 99-cents and bought that, wanted to read the end so bought 5 to 8 for a under $4 bundle price).  I suspect it's done this way because the free one gets you hooked (unless it's really, really bad & I've read quite a few of those) and 99-cents for the next one doesn't sound like much (and then another 99-cents, etc).  Just write a whole book with chapters - I'm not watching TV and don't want an episode, I just want to read a whole book when I purchase it.
