"This has to be the most ugly, malformed abortion of a novel on the planet. Every character, every scenario, every line of dialogue, seems designed to make the reader hate the characters and by association the author for inflicting them upon the eyeballs.

I don't know whether the author is mentally retarded, or just lazy and impatient: within a few hours of zombies sweeping across Britain (they seem to arrive everywhere, all at once, with no warning) you have religious fervour, cannibalism, forced breeding programmes, acts of brutality and cruelty-as-entertainment. One character arrives in a car with a zombie hood ornament, and the guy is wearing blue face paint and has "zombie killer" written on his forehead.

Two hours. It takes longer than that to get across London! The whole book is ridiculous, and stupid. As are the main characters. One woman is so desperate to cross London to get to her child, she gets into a car with people who are clearly violent cannibal rapists. Not once, but twice! And every scenario she makes the patently lethal choice, only to be rescued by a guy with a very obvious White Knight Syndrome.

The youngest protagonist is a truly scummy cretin of the first order. Again, no worthwhile traits that help you connect to him. If the author hoped to win over readers then zombies would feast on this vile wretch starting from page six.

Never before have I even thought of burning a book, but this one not only merits consideration, but requires and demands that I Kill It With Fire. No piece of literature could be worse if it was Hitler's Guide to Child Fingering, printed on the skin of twenty endangered species, with ink made from the last plant on earth that could have cured AIDS. It is Just That Bad. No redeemable characters. Not even one small scenario which shows a hint of intelligence.

"Take pictures of the book burning, if indeed you decide to do so."

"That book must really be crap if you compared it to "Hitler's Guide to Child Fingering, printed on the skin of twenty endangered species, with ink made from the last plant on earth that could have cured AIDS. '"

"Jesus.

Pedro, ya need a drink bud! LOLZ!!

As for the Book Burning: don't do it. Once the Zombies hit, you can use the book for kindling. Until then, spray paint it black & use it to balance a short-legged table..."

"Two hours. It takes longer than that to get across London!"

"On one season of Top Gear, I think it was 6, Jeremy raced a marathon runner 26 miles across London during rush hour in a Panda (I think Fiat makes them). The marathon runner made it in 2 hours 20 minutes and Clarkson did it like 10 minutes slower."

"I knew there would be, but this was something else entirely. As if they pulped all the worst novels, and the tortured souls made a pact with the devil to come back as the ultimate in dire writing."

"Makes you wonder how long the author will last with Pedro out and about."
