As part of my job, I decided to do a lot of đọc on my breaks.. It took me many months to finally end it, convient I was still đọc it in October, and now doing a review of it..
Why... This is a zombie book.. A DEEP zombie story, this shit is... Jesus, it gets really fucked up.. Though I guess John Hornor Jacobs was going for that.. It's a really well known read, worth reading. But the internet doesn't say much about it.. So there's no Wikipedia plot summary, so truthfully I don't know if I fully understand. I had to really think back to everything, and I think I got it now..
So.. We start off with Lucy the nurse.. Around the hospital, I guess people are becoming zombies. I don't know, I had so much trouble understanding all that complicated, doctor talk. bạn know, the scientific words for disease, that bạn never understand.
But I guess people are mentally unwell, dying, and one guy calls her a "whore" and "I'll rip your tits off!" which immediately lets us know.. Yeah.. It's gonna be THAT kinda story.
Anyway, I think the military broke in (because of coarse, it's military in zombie fiction, what else), Lucy and 2 others escape.. Eventually the other 2 are killed bởi the military, I mean, of coarse they are, right?
Lucy runs into gentle giant, Knock Out in his truck. She explains about the zombie shit going on, and they go looking for Lucy's son Gus.. There's even a scene of them naked in a vòi hoa sen as only way to clean each other (no, not the sexy kind, though he the writer explains about Knock out being rubbed bởi her breasts).
Anyway, after a bunch of zombie bashing shit, they find Lucy's house, and have to kill her zombiefied husband Fred. Almost immediately after, they found Gus hiding in the closet. And he shows shocking intelligence for a 14 năm old.
They then find some ATV's and drive off.
We now meet Tessa at a army camp. Lead bởi Captain Mozark.. This dude.. Whoo, this dude is fucked up..
So Tessa had this daughter Cass.. Turns out Mozark is this perverted creep, Tessa and Cass were running from him. He and his buddies found Cass, naked, implying they raped her. And she verbally abuses them, so Mozark just shoots Cass like an animal. And from there, Tessa plans a revenge.. But, get ready for this.. It involving becoming his sex slave.. Yes Jacob goes on a long amount of discription of her sucking his penis, and him saying her name is now "bitch".
Eventually Tessa posions his food, as was her plan. At that point of time Lucy and them arrive. Lucy being a nurse, believes she can save Mozark. But Tessa won't allow this, so she sneaks into Lucy's camp to kill her.. Which bạn know, isn't a overreaction at all.. But Gus points a gun at her, having been suspicious of Tessa. Tessa says Mozark killed Cessa and needs to suffer. And goes on a long rant about all men being rapists. Then zombie Mozark bites Tessa, and as the argue about what to do. Gus shoots her in the head. And she is ironically buried tiếp theo Mozark.
MANY YEARS LATER:
Long story short, Gus is an adult, Lucy had a baby, she and Knock out are dating, and the group of them cleared out an old fort, known as Bridge City. Gus is being groomed as a king of the survivors. Along with one of the survivors from that army camp. Keb. And another one Jasper seems to be the only decent one ironically.
Anyway, one ngày Gus murderers a guy, throwing him down a cliff, for calling Lucy a cunt, and Gus a brat, all while black out drunk. Knock Out finds out. And Gus promises not to kill out of "anger", but instead out of needs for suvivor. Knock out takes it as "good enough".
At the same time two mystery woman, Wendy and Deb run to bridge city for protection from a group known as SLAVERS.. Lead bởi this sadistic asshole called Korstantin.
Gus, Jasper and Keb ride out on bikes to see if the Slavers are real.. Using cocaine of all things to sharpen senses.. After Gus spares a Slaver. They are thanked bởi Jasper getting blown up with an RPG, and Gus getting captured.
We meet the famish Korstantin. As expected. This dude is "something else".. He beats Gus with a brass kneckle, and chops his hand off. All with pleasure.. Then they crusify.. Yeah LITERARY crusify.. Gus.. The rest of the chapter is mostly Gus standing there as they occasionally piss on him, hoặc poke him with a stick.. Not as humorish as it might sound. It's shocking humans can do that to other humans.
Eventually Keb saves the nearly dead Gus, returning him to Bridge City..
It's a little slow from there, till we tham gia the engineer character, Boardsword.. Most of the chapter is zombie fighting (Gus calls a horde of zombies to be called "damily").
They eventually start riding a train for reasons I forget. But it crashes and the narrator of the chapter (Boardsword) dies with the crew.
I'll skip to the end. Korstantin and his army arrive at Brdge City. Kor as I'll call him, demands Gus over a bò đực, con bò, bull horn. The cancer ridden Knock Out walks out, offering himself instead.. I guess Kor refuses.. He pitiously murders knock out, and all out war begins. But Kor and his men start getting getting killed bởi dozens of "damily's" attracted bởi the gun fire.
Keb dies helping Gus and them escape.. Bridge city destoried, and only a hand full servive, mainly Lucy and Gus.. Their fate unknown
So yeah.. Happy happy happy..
But seriously, try to find this book if bạn like deep, disturbing, apocalyptic, horror novels..
As for me.. I'm gonna look for that Steven King book THE MIST.. It's suppose to be short.. Certainly shorter than this one (but not bởi much)..

It's clear at this point that saying I "like" Korn would be an understatement..
I never shut up about them. And never stop posting their songs on fanpop..
But I never forgotten about Metallica.
The band I GREW UP with.
And have every album of.
So, yeah..
It's a hard to know who I like MORE..
It's like saying choosing Iron Maiden hoặc Avenged Sevenfold. It's not possible. :)..
Despite the fact I tình yêu EVERY avenged Sevenfold song.
And only CERTAIN Iron Maiden songs.
The trooper.
Run to the Hills.
Number of the beast.
Ace High.
Fear of the dark.
Either way.
Maybe bạn guys have "different" opinions..
If so.
Say about it in your comments..
