About this listen

There's over a million people in the city of Waterloo. Today, most of them have died, and now they're hungry. Corporal Dan Williamson is caught in the middle of the outbreak, desperately trying to reach his wife who is somewhere amid the urban decay. There are other souls out there, other tales of survival among the horror. Dan will soon learn that the living may prove to be an even bigger threat than the dead.

So chuffed i found this gem of a zombie horror, i haven't quite finished listening yet but wanted to give a review, as a massive zombie genre fan and lover of James Herbert, this is right up my street, its in true Herbert style, i felt :D

Any additional comments?

I had already listened to another audio book before I wrote this review and realized that I couldn't remember a single thing about the story so had to refresh my memory. A good enough listen - nothing incredible - I do remember thinking that it seemed a bit like every disastrous scenario had been laid out on a grid so that they were equally spaced with a well defined period of rest in between - a bit uniform. Also fair to note that at least one of the scenarios seemed rather... silly?!

An average Zombie Novel...
