A Gem in the Zompoc!

Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2017

Verified Purchase

Ever since I first read the short story "The List" by Shannon Walters in the ATZ anthology, The Gathering Horde, I've hoped for an expanded version of Sara's story. Well...finally, it's here! And it's all I hoped it would be. This story has so much heart in it, it grabs you by the "feels" and won't let go. From where the z-pocalypse begins and how it affects Sara's little family, to her journey to once again find hope and faith in humanity through a list of names she's scratched onto a scrap of paper, this story brings it all. I love that this is not a shoot-'em-up-bang-bang tale, where everyone has a miraculous cache of every kind of weapon ever made, but a story based on easily relatable and very real characters. It's easy to step into it and see yourself reacting the same way that Sara does, feeling the same things that Sara feels. And she finds herself in some terrifying situations. Keep the tissues handy, but you might also want to keep the lights on and the doors locked. Ms. Walters has a gift that makes me look forward to reading more. I highly recommend this book, it's a true gem!

a great new zombie book

Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2017

   this is a 4 1/2 star rating

   Finally an apocalypse book from a woman survivor point of view . Let me introduce you to Sara she has survived the death of her family and is trying to find out who is still alive that she cares about . The list is her way of coping and getting to the people she loves .
   This was a nice refreshing switch up to the zombie story . The lead character Sara is a woman who is overcoming everything . What would you do if you lost everything including your family . Would you fight or would you end it all . Sara has that decision to make, you see her as a strong character that is basically at her wits end but she is stronger then she thinks she is. You see her go through hell with her family and then trying to get to the people on her list . She meets groups of people as she travels . All trying to survive and doing what they can to stay safe. She really grows through out the book and becomes more self reliant and stronger .
   The author takes us on a rollercoaster ride with this book . In some ways it is very relatable what the main character is going through. You can actually picture yourself going through everything Sara is going through. You want to hug her and tell her everything will be alright but then you start cheering for her as she becomes a kick ass survivor . You want to pray that all the people on her list is alive just so they can bring a bit of happiness to Sara.
This was a fast read for me I started in the evening and finished the next day . I just couldn't put it down . I wanted to see if Sara and goose would get to where they are going. The only draw back I had was that the ending was abrupt, I wanted to know if she got to where they were going and if her friend would survive . That is the reason I took off half a star in my rating . Over all the book was fantastic and I can't wait to read more from this author . So if you want a apocalypse book with a strong female lead check out THE LIST by Shannon walters

Decimation, Reanimation & Determination!

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2017

Verified Purchase

The world is unraveling on every level as a virus obliterates humanity. The dead reanimate and they are not interested in a "friendly" reunion with the living. Sara, a lone survivor, has to decide whether life is worth continuining after the virus destroys her life as she's known it. She discovers hope in a feisty canine companion, Goose, and goes on an apocalyptic odyssey to locate loved ones on her list, whether living or undead, she's determined to discover their whereabouts. Along the way, she discovers more about her personal strengths and unburies a determined will to survive.

I'm an avid reader of apocalyptic fiction and read my fair share of zombie fiction. The List has all of the zombie apocalyptic feels- (1) physical and emotional decimation of the world and the protagonist (2) reanimation of the dead, yes, but also a reanimation in the form of an awakening or transformation of the protagonist (3) determination and a will to survive despite heavy loss and extreme duress. Here's what else it has...some serious apocalyptic fun and by fun, I mean some serious girl time at the mall. Who doesn't want to run amok and "shop" until you drop? I seriously laughed so hard while secretly wishing I could be party to the fun (minus the zombies). Now here's my final thought, when does book 2 release because I have all kinds of scenarios running through my head and I have a plan for Sara that may or may not involve some hot national guard guy, just sayin'? Please don't break my heart Shannon Walters and hurry up and write already!

A terrifying, hopeful, emotional journey through Hell.

Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2018

Verified Purchase

The list is an awesome, refreshing take on the post-apocalyptic journey. From the moment you pick up this book you will immediately identify with Sara (the main character) and root for her through every aching moment of her adventure. Her marriage, her family, even the town in which she lives immediately resonated painfully for me. I absolutely LOVED Walters' brutal sense of honesty, the raw uncut way she describes Sara's love and loss, and the steadfast strength of her story. It doesn't sugarcoat the apocalypse nor does it paint it as hopeless. It's a real, terrifyingly emotional journey through Hell that I highly recommend to anyone with the fortitude to truly look inside themselves and ask...who would be on my List and what would I do to save them? Bravo Miss Walters, bravo!!!

I do watch The Walking Dead (was coerced into that and then decided it was not like I thought it would be and I liked it)

Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2017

This was my first time reading a book in this genre. I do watch The Walking Dead (was coerced into that and then decided it was not like I thought it would be and I liked it). So I decided to give this book a try for some summer reading. I really enjoyed it. It wasn't quite as scary as I thought it would be (which is good - I do NOT like too scary.). The characters were engaging and the story line realistic. My heart went out to so many characters - probably since Shannon is a female author she was able to tug on my heart strings. I liked that it was an easy read (by which I mean a book you can toss in your bag and pick up whenever you have some time... like waiting for you kid's pratice to get over or the water to boil on the stove) and it was an enjoyable read.

Stellar - as infectious as a zombie virus!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 22, 2017

Verified Purchase

The first zompoc book to get me right in the feels since Girl with All The Gifts. And I think The List manages it more so. Walters takes on elements of a zompoc from a whole new perspective and it resonated with me very much. Smoothly written, compelling, all-engrossing. I started reading this and read it through the night and went to work exhausted the next day as I just couldn't put it down. Reread as soon as I finished it the first time. Heartily recommend to fans of the genre but also to newbies to the genre - a different feel to most zompoc books and a great way to enter the zompoc!

More zombies but in a world that should know what to do.

Reviewed in Canada on November 16, 2017

A fine zombie entry that proves all the tropes are best left in text form. Tv is overstuffed and this repeatedly references The Walking Dead. An interesting choice for a well written story. I was annoyed the main character knows of zombies and still acts like one who doesn't. There could've been fun to be had if she had the strenth to just act. If you want more of the same but with a mom who knows better but is still soft, when she shouldn't bother; check this out. Maybe it'll feel more interesting in a few years.

Character driven zompoc tale. Emotionally charged.

Beautifully written, I swiftly engaged with the main character and felt genuine empathy for her.
A cut above the standard zompoc novel. Highly recommended
