Review: Rot and Ruin

Title: Rot & Ruin
Author: Jonathan Maberry
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
Release Date: December 15, 2010
Book: Bought


In the zombie-infested, post-apocalyptic America where Benny Imura lives, every teenager must find a job by the time they turn fifteen or get their rations cut in half. Benny doesn't want to apprentice as a zombie hunter with his boring older brother Tom, but he has no choice. He expects a tedious job whacking zoms for cash, but what he gets is a vocation that will teach him what it means to be human.\
Im not the type to really get in a zombie book because just the taught of something eating your fingers for a midnight snack is just not my thing. However, this book surprised me on a whole different level. I fell in love with this book from the very beginning. Okay, I know that it sounds weird that I would be falling in love with a zombie book, but hey I did.

First Night! The night that everything went from being good, to be being a zombie take-over. A night where horror was at every corner, and I mean every corner. Now in a gated community where people think they are safe are more in danger, not from zombies but of people from the inside.

Young Imura, with the idea the his older brother is a coward none the less because he thought happened the night of First Night will soon there is more than just killing zombies. He will take an adventure and soon learn the family buisness.

This book got so good that tears were streaming down my face at some parts. I understand that not all people are huge zombie fans but if you get the chance to read it, I have come to a strong conclusion that you will like it. I give my advice to readers out there to pick up this book and dive into it. I came to liking a book that I never imangined myself ever reading.

I give this 5 souls!
