Reviews:
Toby Sanders Rot and Ruin reimagines the zombie world through the eyes of a teenager as he becomes a man. Dealing with themes of responsibility, coming of age and violence, we are taken on an emotional ride with serious characters who will stay with you for many years. 'Bad guys' are far from simple thugs and each character arrives on the screen with their own motivations, goals and desires, all intertwined with the great mass of shuffling undead.
This is probably my favourite series of books ever.
