One night, when getting ready for dinner, Georgia, a teenage
news blogger, receives an e-mail that contained an application asking her and
her partner and brother Shawn to not only cover, but also help run the Presidential
campaign of a former U.S. Senator. The story
that unfolds is incredibly compelling, and keeps you on the edge of your seat
the entire time. It is full of mystery, action,
adventure, and emotion. Georgia and her
brother Shawn travel the country with the former senator in hopes of becoming
famous and win the election. It may
bring them to their fate or to greatness.
Advances in modern science had cured cancer, and beat the
common cold, but in the process created something far worse…Kellis Amberlee
disease, better known as zombies. Despite
the fact that the U.S. is infested with these monsters, life still finds a way
to go on, and doesn’t turn into a huge crime ridden wasteland like you see in
the movies. Life is close to completely
normal, other than everywhere you go you have to give blood samples so they
know if you are infected or not with this new virus. People still lose their lives to the zombies
who wonder aimlessly around. If you stop
in a car they will flip you over, and break inside, so they are still an
incredible menace to society. The zombies cause problems for Georgia and Shawn
as they travel with the Senator and push through with the campaign. As Georgia
and Shawn inspect areas to hold the upcoming election debates, they run into
many obstacles that they have to over come due to the zombies. Together they make life or death decisions for
their whole team, and must make sure the campaign stays alive even if it means
sacrificing their own lives in the process.
FEED is an incredible story that is unpredictable and can
change in the blink of an eye. You will
not be able to stop reading. It will
feel like you are really in the story, looking through the eyes of Georgia and
Shawn, and you will feel their emotions.
You will think about what would happen if they made different decisions,
and what you would do if you had to make the same decision. I would recommend FEED to everyone
considering that it has a bit of every genre in it. It is probably one of the best zombie books
ever written.
