John Marrone’s Reviews > Fortress of the Dead > Status Update

After a 100 pages of reloading various weapons and shooting zombies, they're having stew and talking about zombies. I'm riveted.

I am giving this book one last shot. I love.zombies and I just can NOT get into this thing for the life of me. Its completely chased me away from reading altogether. He manages to.kill something that is so.easy. There is NO life in this story. I read the last few pages that I can tonite before picking up my next read. FTS

Its
So
Slow...
I don't know what it is but he manages to make zombies boring.
This book has zero depth so far.
I wont.... Give up.... Yet...
Ugh

Getting better

I.can tell by the exchange between the sergeant and trying to get a translator for the crowd of survivors - which was excruciatingly over verbose and redundant - that this author has zero writing skills. Bland and black and white and repetitive and bland and black and white. Oh and repetitive. This book is going to drag.

Written poorly. Fuck this writer. But I committed already so. Seems very two dimensional so far but I'm liking the gore. Lame ass Chris Roberson sucks
