#31.Monster Nation by David Wellington

Title:

Monster Nation

Author:

David Wellington

Genre:

Horror/Post-Apocalyptic/Zombies

Synopsis:

Follows the beginning of the zombie outbreak that has overrun the world in ‘Monster Island’. The possible cause of the outbreak is revealed as we watch the world go to hell in a hand basket thanks to corporate and political machinations by asshats trying to use the chaos to glean power and influence instead of addressing it efficiently.

Verdict:

Still compelling, still creepy, not a lot of room for hope seeing as you know what is coming and yet you keep hoping. You get the sense of the serialised format which doesn’t harm the story but which is a bit unfamiliar these days.
