Reviews

[Quentin Wallace]

This serves as a finale of sorts to the original Deadworld story. Things are wrapped up to a point, but not ended. We see the deaths of some characters that have been around a while, and an ending which looks as if it may resolve the demon problem, if not the zombie problem, but I have a feeling there's more to come.

Overall this has been a very entertaining and underrated series.
