Mike and Tracy Talbot gather together their children and join other survivors in their housing estate, Little Turtle to try and evade the zombie hordes. Zombie Fallout is the story of the Talbot family, and their survival through the first weeks of the zombapocalyse, when a government flu vaccination program goes catastrophically wrong. I’m not the biggest re-reader – I’m always a little scared that I won’t enjoy the book as much the second time around – but I’m so glad I went back to this one, and I will re-read the rest of the series before moving onto Zombie Fallout 4. The Zombie Fallout Series made it into almost all of my top 2011 lists and still remains one of my most recommended zombie books. I first read Zombie Fallout in July 2011 and then went on to read Zombie Fallout 2 and 3, all one after the other. The story doesn't really leave you hanging, but there's no actual "conclusion". I suspect that the next book in the series will cover more of this theme.
There is a thread of supernatural stuff in the book, but this is not fully explained. it's about a man and his family facing a zombie apocalypse, and while the source of the zombies is touched on, there is not a lot of explanation as to how/why.
men farting in public type humor - which gets a bit old after awhile - but wasn't annoying enough to ruin the story. Oh, and it's not a "man sets out to reach point B" story either.It's advertised as a "journal style" book but, other than a couple chapters inserted by other characters, and outright references within the story to it being a journal, it does not have the feeling of a journal based book (such as in Day by Day Armageddon, which, btw, you should read if you like zombie books)There is some humor in the book, though it's really bathroom-based, i.e. It is not light-hearted, nor is it a political conspiracy, both of which make it a bit different than the other zombie books I've read recently. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it actually had a different tone than many in this genre.
