Zombie Attack! Rise of the Horde by Devan Sagliani
An enjoyable, action-filled romp with enough pop references to keep YAs engaged. No big surprises - just zombies, good guys, bad guys, a touch of romance, and more zombies.
My only quibbles are ones that are not likely to be shared by the target audience - namely, a hero who I don't really buy as being 16 and a badass, a few pop references which seem more suited to a 35 year old man than a 16 year old boy, some not-so-great dialogue, and action at the expense of plot and character development. But that is the adult me talking. The adolescent me would probably have loved it.
*I was given a copy of this in exchange for and honest review*
