Book Description
All Joe wants to do is go fishing. Little does he know that three days later, he'll be leading a ragtag group of survivors through a zombie infested town. Things will certainly get a tad discombobulated in Central Ohio.

A mortician's skin treatment has done its job a little too well. Aunt Millie makes a miraculous recovery. The funeral turns out a little like weddings do when the bride has a change of mind, or gets one of those overwhelming cravings for a slider. Friends, relatives, the mortician and even the televangelist, Reverend Purswell, are left to sort out the leftovers.

Nobody knows what the mess is all about until confronted with the exponentially born again. As more of the recently deceased munch the town, the police will have one idea about how to confront the zombies and the Reverend Purswell another.

While everyone else is engaged with tom-foolery, Officer Sandra Anderson and Joe, get to the bottom of the horror, one grave encounter at a time. Not much of a first date, huh? What ever happened to dinner and a movie?

4.0 out of 5 stars Where's the spell-checker?, April 8, 2005
By David N. VanMeter (Hilliard, OH United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am not even done reading this book yet but had to put my two cents worth in. The one thing that stands out above all else is the huge amount of spelling errors in this book. I have never seen anything like. So far my favorite is the poor woman who dies of freight... I assume they meant fright. Unless of course a trunk ran her over or a large crate fell on her. There is another instance near the beginning where I am not sure if the character's name is Truck or Trunk. Errors aside, I am enjoying the book because I live in the area where this takes place and the obvious and not-so-obvious references to the locale are a hoot. My favorite subplot is the minister starting his own second coming by shipping zombies out of Port Columbus to all parts of the world to wreak havoc. Funny stuff. I am still surprised by how long it takes before everyone realizes what is going on and figures out how to kill them. The zombie genre seems to exist only because of self-denial. "Nope, never heard of or seen a zombie movie". Overall a good Zombie story with plenty of twists and turns and the stuff we zombie-fans lik
