I reviewed this novel at the author's request, and found it an amazingly literate and literary work of the Zombie Apocalypse ( a subject I generally avoid, because what is new there?) Well, Mr. Ramirez is what is new: his admirable "failed hero," a man who has killed, been unfaithful, despaired, and yet, redeems himself in the eyes of his wife, is a decent father to his "adopted" daughter, is a fast friend to several, and is a protector whenever he can. He is a philosopher and a soul-searcher; a man who has certainly seen some of the worst Death has on offer, and can still grieve, protect, and philosophize on the existence of the soul in the undead.
