A dystopian story similar to Hunger Games with zombies included in the mix. When purchasing this book, I thought it was a stand-alone story as indicated on the Amazon book page (book 1 of 1). Needless to say, I was quite disappointed at the end of the book when the story ended with a big cliffhanger. Otherwise, the story is well written, without errors, and flows well between the different POV of each character as they tell their portion of the story. I will probably not wait for the next book in the series as there are so many stand-alone good books on the market. If you enjoy reading a series, you'd most likely enjoy this book. Having read some of the installments of "Yesterday's Gone," I was really intrigued when I saw this serial Platt & Wright were developing. I find myself a bit on the fence about how much I am liking this, but so far, I have read through the second installment, and it has been enough to keep me going and interested. The story strikes me as a little TOO much like "The Hunger Games" at points, but the other things going on are able to keep me interested and wondering to know what happens next. Platt & Wright certainly have down the ability to keep people in suspense! Can't wait to see what happens in the third installment. For $1.99, it is definitely enjoyable! no reviews | add a review

It is the year 2134 in a dystopian America, following a series of zombie plagues which infected and decimated much of the world's population starting 100 years ago. Those left, formed six walled Cities throughout the continent, all under the rule of a totalitarian government which enforces strict control over its populace. You must obey your government. You must be a good citizen. You must be a productive citizen. You must not break the law. Or The City Watch will find you and arrest you. Jonah Lovecraft, a former Watcher, was arrested for the murder of his wife. And like most criminals, he has one chance at freedom -- to participate in The Darwin Games, a televised survival show which pits two players from each city against one another in The Barrens, the uninhabited areas outside the City Walls. He'll also have to face another enemy -- the zombies which still roam The Barrens. As he fights for his freedom against impossible odds, his daughter, Anastasia, stumbles into people who have information about her father -- information which will change her life forever. But it will also put her in the crosshairs of her father's enemies. Z 2134 is the first part of a new dystopian thriller from the bestselling authors of Yesterday's Gone.

Good so far. It is episodic,so it will continue. The names of the characters were goofy though. ( )
