My Review
Chromozone
Flesh and Blood is a story which every Zombie lover would love to read. Ya, you
heard me right, the book revolves around a group of survivors running to save
their life and trying every second to get rid off Zombies who captured the
whole United Kingdom. For a second. I thought that I am going to read the same
plot of Resident Evil luckily author saved me and yes, it was different though
somewhere I found the plot similar but that’s obvious they are after all Zombies
and you cannot befriend them or they cannot pass through the walls like ghosts.
The book is full of scary portions and human fight against odds. But what
happen? Did they survived or they too were turned into Zombies and for that you
need to buy and read the book.
Narration- Narration of the
book was fast paced and very gripping. I completed the book in a single go and
yes it does not ends what happened in any Zombie featuring movie.
Language –
Language of the book was crisp but somewhere I felt disappointed due to
grammatical errors but its okay sometime we just need to feel the book rather
than being a Grammar Nazi.
Characters I enjoyed
the most –
Sara
– Sara, one of the main character, strongly built and really was inspiring
virago. Sara who was having everything perfect in her life but suddenly one
call from her husband turned her world upside down. Sara who keeps on fighting
and experienced the most horrible picture of human destruction, no matter what
she keeps her head high and just reminded herself that she needs to be with her
son, Harry.
Harry
– Harry, was undoubtedly very cute but deaf boy (this could be avoided it made
the book resemble like the movie). In spite of being challenged he managed to
be very careful and behave like a good boy. Mumma’s boy!
Portions which I
enjoyed the most – Penning down the best and the loved portion I enjoyed is tough
because the book hooked me till the last page, giving me Goosebumps and scaring
the hell out of me(I love reading and watching horror but I do get scared!!!)
Right, so I was saying I was experiencing creepy pasta and the book just not
spared me. The book had very intense and spooky portions like when Sara and
Harry found their neighbor woman thrown herself out of the car. How the maniacs
run carelessly on the road searching for living cell around them.
Once,
done with the book I realized it’s not Resident Evil’s story. The author has
perfectly added gamut of feelings into a book and it does work very well. There
was part where I found my hand on my mouth, it was scary to think who else can
join Zombies and makes everything worse. Right, readers you got to read it book
to know what I am talking about.
Negative Punch – The book will
give Goosebumps to its reader but it will disappoint them when it comes to
grammatical errors. Author could have worked in this particular section
otherwise a little tip to readers, avoid such errors and enjoy the story.
Later, I felt the story could be more twisted and blended because I was
reminded of Resident Evil and Zoombieland but what else I can expect from
Zoombies other than tearing out the shit of the living.
Book Recommendation - I’m not going to
ask readers to be specific this time because we all love watching movie thus, this
book will do fulfill your expectations, just go and grab the book and read it.
It’s worth reading for all of you.
Overall Rating - I would rate the
first installment of Sinister series 3.5/5 stars and would be looking forward for
next book in the same series packed with haunting yet powerful content which
will again send shivers down the spine.
