Taking on the Dead
by Annie Walls
If you love zombie books and I do, then you don't want to miss this one. This is the zombie apocalypse at it's best. The story begins four years after to zombie outbreak, so all the weak and inept people are gone, either being eaten by zombies or dead from their inability to adapt. So what we have left are the hardcore survivors and not all of them are pleasant. One most learn new skills and improve on your mastered talents to make it in this new reality.
Kan
is my hero. It is her nick name, short for Kansas City Sunshine Moore. She is
one badass, zombie killing chick. Her weapon of choice is a crossbow pistol,
but she easily adapts to any arsenal supply that is available. She has spent
the first 4 years of the zombie infected world as a recluse. She leaves her
home, because the crazy survivors take advantage of her hostility and try to
take what is hers.
Kan
has been preparing for this world for most of her life, but gets in a jam
shortly after she starts her journey. That is when, Rudy, the dream guy of
the apocalypse comes to the rescue. There is intense chemistry between
Rudy and Kan. The problem is Rudy has an unresolved issue with an abandoned
childhood girlfriend/lover, which he feels the need to save. She is at a
survival camp that use zombie for protection and force people to conform to fit
into the slots they peg them for. Rudy doesn't know it she is still alive or
even wants to be rescue, but he has to try.
Then
to complicate matters even more, there is Mac. He is Rudy's best friend and
there is definitely heat between Mac and Kan. They have so much in common
and he is available, but Kan still has feelings for Rudy (maybe more than
friendship feelings). What is a girl to do?
Kan
agrees to help Rudy in his quest. Together Kan, Rudy and Mac plan their mission
along with the help of some friends and hired guns. I guess I don't have to
tell you about the best layer plans of mice and men. There is so much
more to this story, but I don’t want to spoil it for you.
This
is book one of Annie Walls' The Famished series. Annie is an excellent writer
and can really weave a tale. I can almost hear the groans and smell the rot of
her zombies. This book kept me hungry for more, no pun intended. I really am having
a difficult time with the wait for the next book, Controlling The Dead. I love
Kan and her world. This is a terrific book!!!!
