great zombie story, a bit different from the others I have read, as these zombies are demon spirits, accidently released from the void and following orders from their leader, ob. this was my first brian keene novel and i can't wait to read more. i can tell that keene is a fan of stephen king as there is a line straight out of the shining, and a lot of mention of other worlds. annoyingly poor editing aside, this was a fantastic read. the ending was extremely frustrating as it didn't really end, much like a horror film, can't wait to read the sequel, city of the dead.
