The Z Word

Rate this book
Unemployed John Pope has been spending his time drinking, and generally wasting his life away ever since he had lost his job. A walk to the shops makes him realise that suddenly the world has turned into a macabre place, something he has only seen in the movies.

It appears that there is a zombie outbreak in England and John takes a while to realise that this is no joke.

John meets up with Clare Conway and Kelly Barrett, people he has taken in, and they spend a few days in John's home, knowing that sooner or later, the zombies will come. But what will they do then? And will they try and find new pastures, somewhere safer?

Not for persons under the age of 18.

good read

Very interesting without spoiling it there is a very unusual ending, good characters, very basic story but very well written.

Pretty good read

I thought this was a decent read. The story flows well and wraps up into a neat little package. If you like apocalyptic stories, I don't think this one disappoints. I only wish there had been some kind of info on how the infection originated. All in all though, good read.
