The scripture warns that in “the last days” the love of the great body of believers will grow cold and maybe that's why people who aren’t people anymore began pounding on Paul’s front door. With his zombie movie and gaming experience, his wife, Sophia, and trusty friend, Dan, know they have an edge against extinction. Paul quickly gets them guns, a siphon-kit and a plan to head south, because if the walking stiffs don’t get them, the freezing Iowa temps will.
Overnight, Paul goes from the unemployment line to the front line in a battle against evil, where he finally finds his calling as a leader. However, his swelling confidence quickly propels them towards tragedy, putting his faith to the ultimate test while the fate of others hangs in the balance.
This book will bring ravenous zombies into your home without the use of strong language and graphic violence.
Amusing quote:
He paused, looking down at his bookts, What's a Rambo knife?
Ya know, from the movie.
His eyes narrowed. Movie? What movie? he asked, reminding Paul of just how young he really was.

My two-bits:
In-a-word(s): ZIPs
Gotta say it, ROAD TRIP - of sorts. I found this to be a thoughtful tale of zombocalypse survivors who travel from Iowa to the Gulf of Mexico to escape the cold snowy weather and... zombies.
