I'm over halfway through this one and sadly I'm a little disappointed. It's not nearly as enthralling as the last novel of his I read, DARK HALLOW. And in terms of being a novel about zombies (supposedly-I have a skewed definitions of what I consider them to be) I find it only somewhat interesting. I feel like since zombies are something I know a lot about, and since I'm such a huge fan of the genre, I feel like there needs to be something more to impress me with.
In addition to that, the story takes place from the perspective of several different characters simultaneously. I'm sure ultimately they come together in the end, but honestly this is one of the aspects that I least admire about the book thus far.
It is a good book, however. It's well written and has a fairly interesting plot. It just doesn't feel unique or fresh. The zombie genre has been so played out it's really going to take a lot to stand out. I'll just be patient and hope there's a kick-ass ending.
