Affliction Z: Patient Zero (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
Although I usually do not enjoy reading a third person themed book, I must admit this book caught my attention. We've seen a lot of horror zombie movies but this seems new. The descriptions and details it provides causes the reader to feel as though they are actually within each scene the characters are in; it is as though you were placed into another world. This is one of the few stories which definitely stands out from every other zombie story I have seen so far.I definitely enjoyed how there are multiple characters involved. I especially enjoyed how we, as readers are able to witness different perspectives of the event which is taking place and how they react to it personally. It is not one of those cliches where the reader witnesses the situation through one pair of eyes, but instead, multiple pairs. It is a very thrilling and action packed book; almost realistic. The events do not occur too slowly; neither does the story start off too slowly. I cannot think of anything I would wish to be altered. I'm really bad at following action sequences, whether in a book or on film. They confuse me, probably because I never played team sports and can process physical information only very slowly.I mention this because this book(let) is surprisingly coherent given its nature. It's a zombie story told as a military op. The action was clean and easy to follow.There's also something intriguing about these zombies. I don't know how the limited and selective persistent intelligence will play out, but I'm curious.I'll read at least one more installment of this new serial.
