The world knew the zombie outbreak was coming and most fortified their home to hopefully keep the zombies out as walls and chain fences went up around homes. The thing they weren’t sure about is where the virus came from. Was the virus released on the population by the government? Was it an accident? Was it an experiment gone horribly wrong? Or could it have been aliens?
I liked how realistic Jennifer made the virus seem. I liked how the characters knew how to prepare for the outbreak from watching TV shows like The Walking Dead or watching George A. Romero’s movies like Night of the Living Dead or even the Return of the Living Dead movies. Most were not preppers they were just movie buffs or zombie buffs and some even read a horror book or two with zombies.
Our main character Sahara lived alone and was a high school teacher. She lived what she would probably call a plain ordinary life. She went to school to teach then she came home and sat in front of the TV probably until it was time to get up and start everything all over again. Sahara admitted to herself that she was just a couch potato so after the zombies came she was ok with being alone.
Then one day the military people showed up on her doorstep looking for survivors. Sahara gave them the use of her home as a base camp sort of thingy as they looked for other survivors in her neighborhood. They also checked her out for bites and tested her to see if she was immune to the virus.
When the group was through checking out the neighborhood they ask Sahara to go with them to their base camp instead of staying there alone. Sahara takes them up on their offer to go with them.
At his new place Sahara was taught how to fight zombies and she also went out with Daniel, Charles and others on missions looking for supplies and finding other survivors along the way.
There was this one hot dude in the group that Sahara was attracted to but she was too shy to do anything about it but I think this guy Daniel may have been too as it took them awhile to get to know each other and for the first one to make a move but when that first move was made sparks flew and often.
I have read a lot of zombie and apocalyptic books not to mention all the movies and TV shows I’ve seen but I don’t believe that I have ever came across anything close to Resistant. The world that was created for Resistant and the characters were all so realistic and convincing to the point where you might be able to believe that a zombie virus outbreak could actually happen.
My favorite TV show just happens to be The Walking Dead so I would so very much love to see the Resistant on the big screen as a movie or better yet as a TV show as a TV shows would last longer. When you are reading Resistant you can see it playing out in your head like a movie.
Resistant is a fast read and will draw you in from the first page and for a few hours you will be lost in this world not knowing what is going on around you until you have read that last page. Oh and that last page was so wonderful leaving you wanting more from this world and characters.
I so highly recommend Resistant to all fans of zombies, a virus outbreak, The Walking Dead, Night of the Living Dead and so much more. Do yourself a favor one click your copy of Resistant today and enter the zombie apocalypse for a horrifying ride.
