Eden
In Eden civilization is at the end. The survivors have returned to urban strongholds and try, in a world populated by zombies to survive. High walls offer protection to the survivors. In theory at least, because at the beginning of the book voracious zombies in the bedroom of the main character and force him to fight for his life.
Tony Monchinski, the author advances as the fictional Tommy Arlin know to grab the reader right at the beginning and again until it let go, when the last page of slips between your fingers.
The narrative structure is rather unusual. The chapters seem disjointed at first, and no specific time line they belong. Only gradually arise for the reader many aha moments and a solid story framework. The zombie rules aim for something actually on the classic Romero-specifications, but are expanded by a faster zombie type. But that is for purists like myself still definitely still in the frame.
same time, I must admit that Eden was essential for the development of my story and gave me the final push to tell a story.
The story does have a closed end, still leaves us the book back with a semi-open end. An ending which took place in the English-speaking world with Crusade already a sequel. Let us hope that Heyne's successor soon bring to Germany. Speaking Heyne: 15 € for Paperback are a proud price, who well-written novels like zombie should invest the money however.
from which deserves die Story fünf von fünf zerstückelten Zombies. Tony Monchinski sitzt nach eigener Aussage derzeit übrigens schon am dritten Band, bzw. hat diesen fertig gestellt.
