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...
