Autumn: Purification by David MoodyMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Third in Moody's series of zombie novels that never mention "the z word".
Because rotting corpses... well, rot... things are getting slightly different for the survivors. The creatures that have been tormenting them are changing. They are less on the attack and more on the move for self-preservation. Will this be better or worse for the survivors? Since the survivors are perceived as a threat to the survival of zombies, you do the math.
Our intrepid band, holed up in the underground military bunker they discovered at the end of the last novel in the series, ends up on the move again as, just as Michael predicts each time we think they're safely ensconced somewhere, things begin to fall apart.
Helicopters, car chases, zombie fights, stolen vehicles, airplanes, mass attacks, and ambushes abound. It seemed to me there was more action in this novel and less waiting around, which was a nice change of pace. You know, don't want your scary novel to get too slow or anything! Not a chance of that here.
This is another quick read. These books are like movie theatre popcorn. I just can't put them down where there are a few kernels left to uncover.
