Dead of Night

The title tells all especially if it has Jonathan Maberry’s name in the writer’s place. Another zombie tale by the writer only this time he tells us about the creation that sickening creature that could only spread evil in the world and nothing else.

The whole plan of the prison team fails or it can be said that they themselves fall a prey to their own plan when the serial killer who is injected with a serum that would make him rot, comes to life before he is buried in the grave and not only becomes out of control but also starts to contaminate the rest of the beings present around him and this starts a zombie raid not only one the state but on the whole planet that could result in the end of the whole human race within no time.

The novel has high drama with dead bodies and rotten flesh everywhere. The story also depicts the worst impact of biological experimentation that are usually done for the benefit of mankind only this time the result was quite opposite. The book can be read along with Nights of the Living Dead and Deadlands: Ghostwalkers as they too have almost the same theme related to these evil and stinky creatures.

William Dufris narrates in a way that his voice makes the story look more spooky and full of evil. The narrator has also used a variation in the tone of the zombies and human which helps the listener a lot to understand the characters and their basic nature. The ending is superb and the words that are given to the characters in the end are also awesome.
