Back on October 29th I had a post asking if you could survive a zombie apocalypse, and Doc Ford mentioned the book Cascade: The Fallen Republic. I just want to say thanks, because it is damned good. I’m about 54% through it, a very long book. Definitely one of the better zombie books I’ve read. A great slow burn, takes a long time. You learn quite a bit about the characters, how they are going about their lives as a zombie like virus (think 28 Days Later) rolls through the US, with mentions of the EU and other nations melting down. You never feel that the author, James Tarr, is padding the book out. It’s listed at 742 pages. You probably won’t like it all that much if you are a liberal. But, the shots at liberals are well done, not overboard, they are subtle, rather than preachy. I usually do not like when fiction gets overly political.
Will definitely read the other two books in the series.
