Book Review:
The Zombie Game is about a terrorist group, ISIS, wanting to assassinate the Pope. In order for them to fulfill their plan, they have to steal a medical ship. In the process, the leader of the group, wants Sanfia to create a zombie army which involves Dr. James in the scheme of things.
The Zombie Game is intriguing! When I first started the book, I wasn't sure what the whole story was supposed to be about, but when I really started getting into the book, it made sense. The "zombies" in The Zombie Game actually surprised me. I guess I might have been expecting The Walking Dead zombies. I felt these zombies were more mind controlled.
I would recommend this book to anyone into thriller, suspense or fiction. Overall I think The Zombie Game is four and a half stars!
