Divided

Genre: Horror, Science Fiction, Dystopia, Post-Apocalyptic, Zombies

Blurb:

Run. Fight. Die. Return.

The world is dying. The dead are rising. But for the survivors, the dead aren't the only threat.

As chaos takes hold of St. Louis, Colin Bennett finds himself on the run. Though the Missouri River is the only thing separating the husband and father from his family, it may as well be an ocean. Colin and a few friends are forced to fight for survival as they seek out a safe haven for themselves and the other survivors they meet along the way. Together they set out to create a new life for themselves and reestablish some order in a dying world.

When discord threatens to tear the group apart, can Colin and the others hold on to their crusade? Or will it destroy them?

My Review:

In Divided book #2 in the Death & Decay series we follow Colin Bennett as he is trying to make his way to his wife Liv and eighteen month old daughter Elli from book #1 whom he hopes has already made it to their apocalyptic go to place.

But of course there are a lot of freaks/zombies in his way not to mention the bridge that he needs to cross that is packed with zombies and bumper to bumper with vehicles. His first order of business is to find away across the Missouri River before he can even begin his journey to his wife and daughter.

But then again he must survive on this side of the river before he can cross it. Not only does he have to worry about fighting the undead he now realizes that he must fight the living as well to survive and the living want him dead almost as bad as the dead or undead.

Colin has always thought of himself as a very good person you knowing doing what he could to help his fellow man and knowing what is right or wrong. But now with the undead roaming around and the living also wanting him dead he takes another look at his own heart and where it fits into this new world and what kind of man he must become to survive in this new world. His preception of what is right or wrong is put on trial and he must decide who he is and how bad he wants to survive and find his family.

R.L. Blalock has knocked another out of the ball park with Divided. Divided is filled with so much action and gore that keeps you hanging waiting to see what is happening around the next corner and when you get there you are like no way I didn’t see that one coming. I love me some zombies and Divided has more zombies than a football stadium on game day with thousands upon thousand of zombies.

If you love zombies, The Walking Dead or Z Nation then you are going to love Divided. I would also like to suggest that you check out Devour book #1 in the Death & Decay series and The Darkest Days book #0.5 as well. You don’t have to read book #1 or 0.5 to enjoy Divided but I would recommend reading them too so you can find out more about Colin’s wife and daughter and their journey in the zombie apocalypse.
