Why read it?

1 author picked City Of The Dead as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book offers a different approach to a zombie-style story. Whatever the enemy is in this book, it’s got that zombie vibe to it. But they speak, shoot guns, and even drive. It was a very different but enjoyable read. The author has written many more novels but this was one of the first books I bought after taking up writing.

From Lee Andrew's list on horror that should be movies.
