What is Fleshbags? It's a different view of the beginning of a zombie apocalypse.  Gerald Rice is a talented writer and while we've read these types of stories before this is one that is wholly original. Instead of following the zombies we follow the survivors as virus and epidemic.  This is a horror novel so you do get a few scenes covered in gore and the description of the fleshbags themselves earns an honorable mention.This is a novella only dealing with the first six hours of the oubreak which means there will hopefully be a sequel. Fleshbags is entertaining and well written. If you're looking for a book that will kill a few hours this is the perfect book. Each character is well thought out and the action well paced. Is it just for horror fans? Fleshbags is a novella that will appeal to a wide variety of readers especially those who love zombie fiction.
