This is the third book
in the Zombie Armageddon series. This time around the action is
centred on an apartment building with a gym and a bar underneath and
‘luxury’ flats above. We are introduced to new types of creature
as well as the usual chaos and carnage!
Having read the
previous two books in this series, I was eager to get my hands on
this one. Wow! Was it ever a good’un! It had a much more
claustrophobic feel as it was based primarily in the flats. We are
introduced to a new sort of ‘Queen Zombie’ who can infiltrate
minds and uses her feminine wiles to trap her victims. Making a
welcome return are the child zombies who live in the wall cavities
and can scuttle up the walls and along the ceilings like spiders!
These were briefly touched on in the first book. All these plus the
usual odious characters make for a rip roaring stonker. As well as
rooting for the few good guys, I was screaming at the bad guys to
hurry up and get offed already. There was slightly more gore this
time around but it wasn’t in your face and not until about a third
of the way through. The horror built up slowly with a couple of early
pointers.
I have to say I love
Ian’s work and this is no disappointment. Get it of you have read
the others, hell just get it and enjoy the ride!!
