Review: No Spoilers, but the ending managed to make for an interesting continuation...

Mama Lona's Man by Brett DavisWell, an interesting tale with, at turns, some young adult humor, family negotiations and beautiful scenery...and Zombies.  Yup, I said zombies.  I will admit the story read in an even timeline with its own twists of historical fiction as well as multiple family generations, but the central character falls in love with...you guessed it, the main man - Mama Lona's Man - an ex-Navy SEAL gone zombie.You actually get to feel for the main character, turned against his will simply because of happenstance, and while the story because almost unbelievable (did I say almost?) the ending is a happy one although very unrealistic - the young'uns will love it!But not so fast, oldies! There are lots of memories for "the father" to relive, many of them happy.  And the daughter who, while struggling through adolescence, certainly could have made more unhealthy choices in her young life. Least we not forget the entire peripheral family as well, who all join forces to actually help this young man save a much-loved island.All-in-all it may not be a deserted-island-keeper, but it was fun, entertaining, and evoked a certain sense of imagination that I'm not sorry I subjected myself too...but I'll leave part two to quietly fade away, if there should be one.This is my second review for BookRooster.com and I did receive a complimentary copy of this book in order to review it...but I guess I still haven't zeroed in on a preferred genre ;-)
