Summary
First the dead rose up, and civilization fell. Those who survived struggled to rebuild, creating makeshift societies with harsh new rules and harsher punishments. Some would be leaders, others slaves. But none would ever be safe from the walking death.
Off the coast of Texas, an island research facility offers sanctuary, supplies, and hope to a desperate trio of survivors. But when they learn what the scientists are doing, how their experiments could unleash armies of the undead, they have no choice but to fight back.

Good
This is the sequel to the plague of the undead, by Joe McKinney, I didn't enjoy it as much as the last but I would be interested in a sequel to this.

Worse than the first one!
Where to start?
Jacob continues to be incompetent and stupid. The characters all take time out in the misfit zombie attacks to scream abuse at each other.
The author’s misogyny is front and centre here - the women are ‘girls’ who spend all their time whining and/or screaming. In the middle of an attack, the idiotic Jacob takes time out to wish he was in bed with two ‘hot naked girls’, etc. etc.
The plotting is worse than the previous book- no real explanation for why various things happen and the author struggles with dates. For example, in book one Barry is ten years older than Kelly. In this, Jacob blithely announces that Barry used to be a university professor, which would make him at least thirty years older! He also introduces a totally unbelievable wife-beating and joint alcohol abuse issue to make it more plausible that Kelly would forget about her dead husband so quickly.
Re: The ridiculous Chelsea - it would just about explain her survival and level of knowledge if she’d been a captive for a couple of years - but seven? In reality, she would certainly have forgotten practically everything she had ever learnt due to trauma and the passage of time, but not in this world. The author also shoehorns in some abuse trauma, which apparently happened, ‘every night’ despite never mentioning this in book one, (which makes Chelsea having enthusiastically entered into a relationship with Nick as soon as she met him seem even more unlikely!)
The pseudoscience about Morphic fields is front and centre here - I could have - just about - tolerated that, but the lumping together of autism and Alzheimer’s is just offensive and ignorant.
I don’t really know why I finished this - more fool me, really!
