I love reading zombie books. The reason I love reading them is because they are pure escapist fun. There's no real chance of actual zombies knocking on my door and menacing my family...nope...isn't possible...but what if....Oh My God...Cordyceps is real, just read what it does to ants and this particular fungus is my no means the only type out there. What would happen if it could cross the species barrier? Just how bad could it get? You'll have to read the book to find out, but I recommend you don't read it alone at night.The book itself is satisfyingly meaty, the characters extremely well drawn. I felt I was actually there with Cole and Shelly, travelling across infected countryside, just trying to find a way out. There were a few minor editing issues and I could have improved the spelling and punctuation somewhat, but it was nothing that detracted too badly from what was actually a riveting thriller.
