“Daybreak”

“In a sea of zombie fiction, this one does a good job of standing out from the crowd a little.

For one thing, it’s done in sort of a POV format, so as the reader the characters in the book are talking to you directly. Not an easy thing to pull off without having the one-way dialogue seem awkward or putting in a pair of hands or something.

With the exception of video games, I can’t really think of a lot of situations that use this method successfully. Well, or course, except for the motion picture Doom.

Also, the book has a pretty good, sympathetic main character that I cared about more than…let’s say 2/3 the cast of Walking Dead television series.”
