It's another end of the world novel, Sci Fi. Apparently this author gave away his first book 'Hater' and has an internet following or something. They don't have gourmet taste buds. It seems to be about zombie-like people vs normal people. How to tell the difference? Got me! Clueless. How they tell one from another? Got me! Clueless. But they can spot each other half miles away.
What I don't like is that writer changes stream of consciousness from one person to the next sort of randomly and sticks dreams in where-ever without any warning. I need chapters like "Bob's thoughts" but a more experienced writer would be much better. Because this is disruptive.
There is no actual difference between monsters and normal people so I don't know what the bloody war is about. They all run around with weapons killing each other. Who has the biggest pile of dead bodies. BIG WHOOP. It reads like a bad killer video game. My interest level in turning pages is pretty low. Actually the 'zombie' people have more personality, more thoughts and interactions, more talking than the 'normal people' do so that also makes this indigestible. So far not impressed. Shall plod onwards.
As for the "change" which author means from normal to wanting-to-kill-everyone (thus; Hater) he shouldn't call it "THE change" cuz I'm equating these fake zombies as suffering post menopausal symptoms. They're bitchy, hot headed and have no interest in sex....sound familiar????
David could use some math classes. People in the story drive half way into town and use half a tank of gas. Say that's about 5 gallons. Say the car gets 25 miles to a gallon. That's about 125 miles and that's a big fucking town buddy cuz it's only HALF WAY into town. You want the car to get 10 mpgs you say? That's still 50 miles halfway into town. Big fucking town. More on that: His daughter who is skeletal from being tied down and starved acts like Bride of Chuckie by killing everyone in her path. Which would be mildly funny if the average 5 yo didn't weigh about 40 lbs and this one is SKELETAL..hell I could take her. She's a monster who kills everything in her path. Inserted unintentional comedy for your pleasure.
What an illogical piece of shit. Bribed publi$her? The 'zombie' non-caring-about-anyone people has one zombie-guy touchingly devoted to finding his little 5 yo daughter not his two sons-pedophile could care less about them. The normal mother of the kid has her hidden and taped up for what...months? on tranqs asleep. Any food? Who knows. Does mammy know babby daddy (reference FARK) is searching for him's wittle girly who killed her two brudders? Meanwhile "unchanged" people think they're turning zombies into real people. Confused yet? They're supposed to be blending in while getting ready for a war. Skip over any narrative b.s. if you're bored (which happens a lot) and this will end the nightmare quicker for you. Very boring, nothing going on, pages and pages of nothing. The bloody cover is the most interesting thing about this book.
