When a group of Ninth graders go on a field trip to a local cave that has been closed for fifty years because of rumors the army once stored dangerous chemicals there, it becomes a game of survival after they are attacked by mutated bats. The reluctant hero is a kid named Sean who must step up and take charge if he is going to protect himself and his close-knit group of friends. Things become even more complicated when the kids learn their remote little town has also been invaded by the zombie bats...
This is the first book of a still be written series. The target audience for this book is Young Adult-Juvenile. Our young heroes must find the courage to rid their small town of vampire bats that were accidentally released from a local cave. It was a bit corny at times, in a good sort of way. There are a few typos (spelling), but not so much as to be a major distraction. I recommend this story to readers of the Young Adult, Action Adventure, and Children's Horror Genre.
I don't care much horror/thriller stories, but I really liked this short story. It did have a typo or two, but nothing serious. This was a young adult thriller about four teens who rescue the remainder of their town after accidently awakening a cave full of zombie bats on a class trip. It even gave a teaser to a sequel. I am looking forward to reading Return of The Zombie Bats!
