Now that it has been released and it has already been delivered to my Kindle app on my iPad, time to take a bite. Or, if Hugh Howey’s other novels are an indicator, likely finish in under two days.

So in this book Howey  takes the Zombie genre and puts it on its head. For in this novel he explores the human souls who do not make it. The ones left to turning into zombies themselves with their humanity trapped by their condition. If Howey’s previous works are an indicator I will finish this book with many thoughts about humanity at its core. About whether or not we deserve to survive an apocalypse, Zombie or otherwise. Oh and in case you missed it. It is a Zombie book. And, I love zombie books.

The book is on sale now on Amazon: I, Zombie by Hugh Howey on Amazon

We are huge fans of the Wool series by Hugh Howey. Here is a video from random house and a new site to promote the series. More of a teaser than a trailer. But, if you’ve read the books you will understand how satisfying this story will be as a film. Found thanks to Hugh Howey himself. Check out his site: http://www.hughhowey.com/?p=2548 and new Wool Focused site here:http://www.thisiswool.co.uk/

Thanks to Slashdot, this will be my next read. Awesome thing is it was self published and collection of 1-5 can be purchaced for only $5.99 on Amazon or just the first short for $0.99. It has some amazing reviews and it feels great to support a self-published author like Hugh Howey.

I like long walks on the beach, the smell of fresh cut grass, and puppies…
