This book, this whole series, in fact, is a vital leap forward for the zombie genre.  Nassise has not only proven his mastery of the zombie essentials, the sense of adventure and the horror of a world gone mad that form the core of the best zombie fiction, but he has done it with such jaw-dropping inventiveness that he’s given the whole genre a new starting point.  I would argue Joseph Nassise the most important thing to happen to zombies since Max Brooks, and that’s no hyperbole.  He’s really that good.
