We Are The Infected by Steve Kuhn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
So the second book continues right along with the group forging ahead in search of the military group. One of the members in their group is bitten and they are waiting to see if he can fight the infection. This shows their human nature and also, a very dire mistake.
Nonetheless, this group of people continue to grow ever closer as a family and are always there for each other. They have spats and arguments but they are growing closer than ever.
The character development continues seamlessly from the first book and is realistic and enjoyable. You really start to see more of who each character is and they each have their own voice.
Despite the fact that this book continues to be written as journal entries, the voice of Dext tells it as a story. It is enjoyable to read the story unfolding as an actual book but then to have Dext interject his own thoughts and quirks into it is interesting.
We get to meet Murphy and Fart…which I think Fart is one of my most favorite characters. We also meet some seriously religious folks who, for me at least, might be creepier than the zombies. We also get to add another military soldier to the mix, Fool.
Of course even with the addition of more people, this group is not without their losses. You never know who is going to die or how, but this author sure keeps it creative and engaging.
With all the twists and surprises this book brings, I couldn’t wait to start reading the third installment.
