Written by Kevin D. Anderson and Sam Stall, this entertaining book does exactly what the title promises. It follows a group people at a Star Trek convention, when a Zombie outbreak occurs.
Below is my review. For more information on how and why I review books read my post here.
Characters
When it comes to characters the authors took the best of both genres and mixed them up. On average I find Zombie movies have weak stereotypical characters. It’s a good thing that the authors decided to flesh out the characters more like Star Trek. They have detailed and interesting back stories. Along with the flaws and quirks that make them more than just a cardboard cut-out.
For characters, I give it 4 out of 5
Writing Style
The writing style is a nice cross between silly and serious.
For what it was, it was good. I give it 4 out of 5.
Story
This book was exactly what I wanted and exactly what I expected. Unfortunately, when it comes to Zombies, or Star Trek, I like to be surprised a little. I saw every twist and every story line coming several chapters in advance.
Does this make it a bad story? No it’s still entertaining and fun.
I give the story 2 out of 5
Fun
This book felt like a well planed Star Trek and Zombie, role playing game, it was fun.
If you like Zombies and Star Trek get yourself a copy of this book and enjoy.
I give it 5 out of 5 for fun
Overall
Final score is 75%
Cute. It made me interested in reading the book, even though I don’t like zombies.
