I just finished reading this awesome book by Jack Strange. It's about the zombie takeover of the world led by a former celebrity chef and Henderson, his zombified cat. I won't offer any spoilers here but I will say that it's one of the funniest books I've ever read. If you like the Evil Dead/ Army of Darkness or BeetleJuice type of humor, then you'll like this:
Editorial Reviews
"The creation of Floyd Rampant ... is quite simply a work of genius.
...special mention too should be given to the creation of Henderson, the cat turned into a vicious cat-zombie. I know, I know, the concept sounds ludicrous but believe me it works! The much neglected sub genre of Feline zombies finally gets the poster boy that its been crying out for with the rightfully creative ways in which it despatches it's human victims. Inspired writing."

"...a pretty brisk read..helped by what I'd like to call the 'Dan Brown' style of chapters... giving the reader moments to recover from some of the shocking, and at times twistedly hilarious, events of the story..."

"You quickly empathise with characters that are in my opinion ingeniously named. For example a zombie named Floyd Rampant... Throw in some dubious unsavoury characters, a policewoman who does well not to vomit, a reverend, the P.M. and a plethora of other characters who may or may not survive and you have a book that is easy to fall into and a narrative that will make you hoot."

"Celebrity Chef Zombie Apocalypse has some amazingly strong characters, even if some don't last as long as you'd like!...A Very enjoyable book.... 5 out of 5 gold stars. Thank you for reinvigorating a tired genre and giving me such a good read Jack!"

Dear Jack,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your reviews here and on Amazon. When I read your Amazon review, it absolutely made my day. Since reading it, I’ve discovered you’re an artist and seen a little of your work. I’d like you to know that I’m very impressed by it.
Thanks again,
