Deaders

By: Steven Bynum

Narrated by: Eric A. Shelman

A fungus of unknown origin permeated the Earth's atmosphere. It was discovered to be lethal to humans, but it was too late. Infection occurred on a global scale.

The fungus had a fantastical ability: reanimation of the dead.

A man with a natural resistance survived. Now, he's on a mission. A mission to burn away the dead and the fungus along with them.

I'm not usually a zombie book reader, but...

I'm not usually a zombie book reader, so I can't really compare the "plague" dispersal method to other books. But it seemed like an interesting concept and I just finished a book on mushrooms. The characters were not bad, but they felt a bit stereotypical to me. It let me guess the "twist" pretty early on. But I loved Jacob's dedication to killing everything.

Eric A. Shelman seems well-suited for the horror genre. His characters were distinct and interesting. Pacing was really good.

I loved this book, it had everything that you could want in a book. It was very well written with an extremely likable protagonist. This book was really, exciting, and oh so very funny. It had super secret societies, crazy religious zealots, and oh so secret military agencies. In a word this book was fabulous!!!
