But the book involves much more than zombies eating flesh. The characters are so realistic that you can recognize any of them as neighbors, friends and family. And they pull you in to their lives, sharing their problems, making you cheer them on while they try to solve their problems. Of course, not all the problems are solved easily; the zombies have to have someone to eat. However you will still find the book riveting and not something to be missed. I know that I need to hunt down more of Nutman's books and enjoy them. Oh yeah, an extra bonus for comic book fans is that many of the characters are named after well known comic book writers and artists. It doesn't detract or add to the story itself but it is fun to find out some comic book favorites are "in" the story. ( )
