The New York Times bestseller Warm Bodies captured hearts worldwide in twenty-five languages, inspiring a major film and a cult fandom. Now R the reluctant zombie continues his journey in this much-anticipated sequel.

Being alive is hard. Being human is harder. But since his recent recovery from death, R is making progress. He’s learning how to read, how to speak, maybe even how to love, and the city’s undead population is showing signs of life. R can almost imagine a future with Julie, this girl who restarted his heart—building a new world from the ashes of the old one.

And then helicopters appear on the horizon. Someone is coming to restore order. To silence all this noise. To return things to the way they were, the good old days of stability and control and the strong eating the weak. The plague is ancient and ambitious, and the Dead were never its only weapon.

How do you fight an enemy that’s in everyone? Can the world ever really change? With their home overrun by madmen, R, Julie, and their ragged group of refugees plunge into the otherworldly wastelands of America in search of answers. But there are some answers R doesn’t want to find. A past life, an old shadow, crawling up from the basement.

Movie Watchers guide Review

I never read the first book but I saw the movie and it's pretty easy to follow just off that. there are some key differences though. SPOILER ALERT main differences you need to know are:
* R wears a suit and tie as a zombie not a hoodie. minor detail very important.
* Julies dad died at the end of warm bodies instead of accepting R
* Boneys were slightly more intelligent zombies not decomposed corpses
* R had a zombie wife and two kids.
I really like the continuation of the story in the background into R's first life. my only issue is the book ends feeling very incomplete and since he only did a very limited release the final book I've been having a hard time tracking down a copy.

Not as good as the first novel

I definitely struggled to get through this audio book. The biggest problem for me was that I got confused on who the narrator was talking about sometimes. It might have been easier in print format but I felt this book was a lot harder to follow than the original.

loved it

great narrator gripping story wonderful characters I had a lot of fun listening to this r is such a we'll written character and it's so good to know who he was and what he did before being a zombie.

From Warm to Burning

I’m a huge fan of Marion’s prose. He writes with such lyrical mastery—his words are so fluid and poetic. ‘The Burning World’ is no exception.

A much darker and richer novel than its predecessor, this sequel to ‘Warm Bodies’ expands the zombified world of R and Julie to unprecedented depths. We learn more about the plague and its mysterious “cure,” we learn about what’s been going on beyond the airport, beyond City Stadium; most importantly, we learn more about R, and his life before he joined the ranks of the undead.

This novel is quite the ride—don’t get comfortable, and never prepare to stay in one place very long. Jacques Roy is an outstanding narrator, his voice for R is suitable. It is quite evident that this novel demands a sequel, and I very much look forward to seeing where Marion takes us next!

Fantastic follow up to warm bodies

I've waited so long for this sequel and it was well worth the wait!
