EX Isle by Peter Clines

Picture      I was thinking this would be an amazing story.  I thought it would be a change from the run-of-the-mill zombie novels and I thought I'd love the storyline.  On all accounts, I found myself disappointed.  

     EXIsle is about the world being over-run by zombies.  There's a war going on and you're either a Good Guy or a Bad Guy.  There are no by-standers and everyone's collateral damage!  I found the story unbelievably unbelievable.  From the first page where St. George tosses zombies with a flick of the wrist, to him jumping about twenty feet into the air!  I was like, "Really?  Really..."

     This is part of the EX Heroes series, by Peter Clines.  This is book number 5 I think and I believe it will be the only one I read.  Why do they keep chucking me in the middle or end of something that could be great?!  Coming in on a series is just not cool for me and I'm so bummed that they keep coming to me this way, but I take many of them the way I get 'em.  

     Sadly, I wasn't happy with this one.  Not only did it suck but the author even apologizes for rushing the job in the acknowledgements at the end!  Say wha?  So I may end up handing this book off to a friend.  I don't even know if I want to keep it on my shelf.  What a bummer...
