The Dead Series #4
Dead End
The Final Book in The Dead Series:
Trapped in the Happy Hallow Insane asylum by thousands of the dead, Steve, Heather, Tick-Tock and the rest of the group search for a way out. With tens of thousands of reanimated corpses also coming towards them, time is running short as they plan a way to get Cindy, a ten-year old girl that is immune from the HWNW virus, to safety. She is their only hope for finding a cure to the disease that reanimates the dead into beings that are compelled to eat ravenously and crave human flesh, and she must be saved at all cost.
When what is left of the dead weight that the group rescued from the Battleship Texas realize that it is a life and death struggle, they join in to fight for the group’s survival. But will it be enough?
With a deadly landscape to cross, they will need help. Bandits scour the country as they search for food, fuel and firearms to stay alive, and the military is breaking down.
The group may have reached a dead end…

Good story and characters, politics turned me off even more than poor editing
Not sure why something with such promise had to become a weapon against a particular political party/persuasion (and it’s not that I’m part of that party, I’m just sick of that kind of behavior - beyond which it had nothing at all to do with the story). This was something that became more prevalent as the series went on and ruined it to the point I finally skipped to the end. It’s a shame, really, because I truly liked the characters, in particular.

This book ended well tying up all the loose ends. It only has four stars as I'm not really interested in all the military infighting but the rest of the story was excellent! A great end to the series! Read them all its worth it!

Enjoyed the final instalment of this series as I really wanted to find out what happened to the characters - this has been a good story throughout, which hasn't run out of steam throughout the four books. I would probably have rated some of them higher but couldn't due to the constant problems with the editing ('puss' for 'pus', character Tick-Tock occasionally being called Tick-tick [but he didn't go off!], the HWNW virus changing to H1N1 and back again etc.) - all four books could do with a good bit of proof-reading - 8.5/10.

Awesome read!
I been a fan since the beginning and enjoyed how the story unfolds. Would have like to know what happens to Grimm and the Thing twins. Great job Mr Schafer!
