Shamblers the zombie apocalypse edition by Andrew Cormier Literature Fiction eBooks
I received this book for free from the author in exchange for an honest review.This book starts off with fast paced action that is non-stop throughout the novel. Nick is an easily enjoyable and seemingly level-headed character, while his buddy Marcus is quite the opposite. From the beginning I knew Marcus was trouble and despised his character.
The author does a great job of depicting characters and a merciless society as it most likely would be in the face of the apocalypse. We watch as the characters have to make difficult decisions that mean life or death for others. It is not any easy decision for some and too easy for others.
Once the group has to flee, Nick and Becky are alone and one thing leads to another. Now that they are together, it causes a jealous rift between Marcus and Nick when they catch back up with the group. And Marcus is not someone whose bad side you want to be on.
The town that they end up seeking refuge is strange, but again this portrays a reality of what the end of the world does to people and society.
Nick ends up being betrayed by Marcus, left for dead and his woman kidnapped.
As I said, fast paced action that doesn't stop. The characters are all unique and believable. The story was well written and the ending is quite interesting.

Shamblers the zombie apocalypse edition by Andrew Cormier Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
A very pleasant and light-hearted read.
The pacing of the book was great, and even though the first chapters were a little slow, it kept my interest and I read it right through in one sitting. The third act was a tour-de-force of action and violence, definitely the best part and all the action is really taut.
I think The Preacher will be the fan favorite character. The set pieces throughout the book are very well conceived and play out with gusto. There are a few minor typos (hard for a new author without an editor, I know) but they don't detract much from what is a very enjoyable tale.
Treachery and chaos abounds in this new offering by Andrew Cormier. Resources are scarce and the competition for them is absolutely cut-throat in the new bleak environment. Man against man. Man against zombies.
Nice twist at the end. Revenge is a dish best served cold. I very much enjoyed this gritty, treacherous, unflinching view of the zompoc. I think you will too.
Thank you to the author for providing a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I've only read a few zombie books, and all so far were either YA or paranormal romance. So, reading one that didn't fall into either of those two areas was new for me, and I wasn't sure what to expect.
I thought this story started off as promising, though the writing didn't really flow very well for me at all. The story concept though seemed interesting.
When it came to the characters though, it was very difficult for me to really find them relatable, and most I found just marginally likable. I did not care at all for the character of Marcus...I realize he is purposely written this way, but he is so far at the nasty end of the spectrum I found myself not wanting to read any scene he was in. And the way the other characters responded to him and didn't call him out on his remarks and behavior just left a lot to be desired.
The first part of the book was fine, but once Marcus' view took over this is where I found myself really having to push through to finish. With such an undesirable character featuring so prominently, it made the story become one where I kept checking to see just how much more there was to go before I could finish.
The two stars I gave were for being able to finish, and the first portion of the book where Nick's character as the main voice made the story much more tolerable.
3.7 if you want to get technical )
I nabbed a copy of 'Shamblers' last week, partially because the author was courteous enough to offer me a copy in exchange for a review, but also because I'm a zombie author myself who hasn't actually read many, so with all of the titles out and about to choose from, it was good to have a bit of motivation. That being said, I bought a copy myself, as I always do, so I would feel free to review it candidly.
Shamblers was a pretty good novel, and if I was more likely to err on the side of 'blooey-bloke' action books, this probably would have warranted damn close to a five star. In fact, I know that my husband, who has pretty much read every zombie novel available on audio, would ( and will, when he puts down the Game Of War app for ten bloody minutes) love this, so stand-by for his review that will come along eventually.
Unfortunately for the author, I am a girl who was a cheerleading captain and a is a musical theatre enthusiast, so I favour the zombie books that are a little bit more female-friendly; either serious classics, like The Passage or Cell, or narrated from a female POV, like Feed or The Forest Of Hands And Teeth. You know, a little 'chick' softening around the edges of the sores… or a nice white bandage or something ;)
But that is me. Shamblers ticks all the right Zombie apocalypse boxes Gory, full of action, shoot 'em ups and knock 'em downs and with a nice, quick pace. There were a lot of things that were really terrific about the story, for example, I really appreciate the fact that the protagonist isn't this big macho man who creams everyone without breaking a sweat; he gets king hit, locked in a basement and seriously injured or screwed over often and so it reads as realistic. I liked the idea of the story in general, how it focused on a few characters meandering around the countryside, looking for a good base camp, only to lose it either to the shamblers, or the desperate humans who want that piece of territory too.
And I very much enjoyed the plot twists, especially the point-of-view switcheroo in the middle, which brought a fresh dynamic to the story. The transition was seamless; the author did very well at putting a different slant on two separate streams of consciousness, effectively putting you right in the drivers seat of two different mind-sets, and I applaud that because not many writers can pull that off. Another great positive is the fact that, although the entire story has a rather depressing morale, you don't FEEL depressed reading it because it's a fun, action-packed adventure with a fantastic ending.
