Love & Zombies by Eric Shapiro

This is the story of Henry and Sam. Sam has persuaded Henry to go to Vegas on a harebrained scheme to go and pick up a 'Day One' zombie that the people who employed them can manipulate for some extreme zombie porn. Somewhere along the line though, things go awry and they find themselves knee deep in the desert in the middle of zombie hell....

I really, really enjoyed this. I am the first to admit that I am not that fond of the zombie genre, as everything seems so samey. This however mad for a refreshing change. The zombies were present, but they were incidental to the story. The action was top notch, and there was the right mix of horror and humour. in fact at times I found myself laughing out loud, with my husband giving me funny looks beside me. All in all, this is a quick and funny read with some great horror elements.
