My Review:

A World Away takes us back to the start of the zombie apocalypse, shedding light on Logan and Stella’s world and their whereabouts when the outbreak began. We learn about Stella's destination on her long journey through the apocalypse as she battles zombies.

A World Away is an intense read that kept me hanging on every word as I followed Stella across the country, learning about the zombies and how to deal with them to stay safe and alive, always wondering if the next zombie she encounters will be her last. The country is descending into chaos as the dead rise and attempt to take over the world, hoping to become a new species, the only ones left to roam the earth.

The vivid descriptions of her struggles and triumphs made me feel as though I was right there alongside her, experiencing the tension and fear firsthand. Each chapter revealed not only the horrors of the world around her but also the resilience of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable challenges.

The action of zombie fighting keeps the pages turning as I anticipate what awaits Stella and Logan down the road. With each encounter, their bond grows stronger, and they learn to rely on each other in ways they never expected. As they navigate the treacherous landscape, the duo must confront not only external threats but also their own fears and doubts, ultimately discovering the true meaning of survival. I eagerly look forward to reading more about Stella and Logan in future books of the Dead Word Trilogy!

I highly recommend this zombie story, A World Away, to all zombie fans out there! The engaging characters and intricate plot twists make it a standout in the genre. With each page, the tension builds, leaving readers on the edge of their seats, eager to uncover what happens next. Grab your copy of A World Away today and join the fight against zombies.
