I’m not usually a fan of zombie stories but this one caught my interest immediately, and now I need book 2! The world building, as I’ve come to expect from this author, is fabulously detailed and quirky, as are the characters. I love that this is set in the UK with twists on familiar places now they’re overrun with zombies.
I loved Orion, a fae stuck on Earth in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, and how he views the world. I’m intrigued by Wendy, his virtual pet, who seems powered by magic as well as science, and I wonder if she’s going to play a bigger part going forward.
Miko does brooding so well, but underneath is a good guy trying to make a difference and fix the world. His back story is tragic. I liked the way it is revealed as the story progresses. I loved how he’s determined not to fall for Orion, and how that works out for both of them.
The supporting cast are great. I loved how the twist with the search for the Oracle. I didn’t see that coming! Lance is a nasty narcissist who needs a huge dose of karma. I’m trusting the author to deliver that by the end of the series.
And that revelation at the end… I didn’t realise when I started reading that this was the first in the series, and figured it wasn’t going to be resolved by the end of the book.
