Waiting on Wednesday # 43- Controlling the Dead
by Annie Walls
Series: The Famished Trilogy #2
Expected publication: June 2013
Genre: Adult Zombie- Post Apocalyptic
Read my review of book #1 Taking on the Dead
The team finds help in unlikely places, meeting more survivors, and discovers the possibility of a new beginning. When the team experiences a devastating loss, Kansas struggles to keep her humanity from fading and distorting like that of the surviving society around her. It begins with knowing who to trust and who to leave behind. First, she must trust herself – she won't make the same mistakes twice. As the answers to her questions are revealed, Kansas begins to understand the knowledge comes with a heavy price and great responsibility of controlling the dead. In a trilogy plot thick with twists and turns, this adult dark fantasy is as emotional as it is horrifyingly gripping.Taking on the Dead made my top ten list for Adult Fiction in 2012 and I am on pins and needles waiting for book two. With fleshed out characters, a gritty and dark storyline that completely engages you this series is a must read for zombie lovers and post-apocalyptic fans!

check my review of book one, it is so much more than zombies and the characters are fantastic!
you know I love to mix up my genres and I really loved book one!
the zombies aren't really the focus, but they are very dark and gritty when they appear, this is really about the humans fight for survival.
