I think I liked this book better than the first. The pace is perfect. Not too fast, not slow at all. I feel the suspence every page. I also love the changes that has come with the story. Can't wait to read the next book!

When I finished reading the first book I knew I had to read this book. This book is more action packed and better than the first book in someways.

The main character's name is Jimmy and he's a twenty-two year old book-nerd who has no friends. He use to live with his grandma and he use to work at her used bookstore. You feel for the guy because you can imagine being in his place and so the feelings/reactions to the story progression are more real. The book ends on a cliffhanger making me desperate to read what happened next!

By his side, are a weird bunch of misfits, including a cop, a prostitute, a drug dealer, and even a newborn baby. The group are on a mission and that is to get to the cops son, who is in another country - which is a crazy idea when you think about it.
Not realizing until later, that their new rout is in the same direction where the infected are heading to.

I'm not sure why the zombie are heading west or for what reason but I want to find out! But we are going to find out soon as the characters are heading that way. I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to continue.

Still full of pop culture reference I can follow, this book was worth much more than I paid for it. Truly a fun, fast and highly entertaining read but you do not need to take my word for it. Book one is free on Amazon. Grab a copy and see for yourself.

Good book

If you like a dork then you will love the characters in this zombie tale. It's kind of a corny story but you will still come back for more

My review from the first book, Dead Highways: Origins holds completely true for this book, too.
