The Walking Dead

The Walking Dead The Walking Dead by Gerald Seymour


My review


rating: 3 of 5 stars
A very topical storyline, with an interesting insight into both sides of the picture.

Not the best Seymour I have read though; at times I wondered if it had not been proofread, it may have been me but I found myself having to re-read some paragraphs that didn't seem to make grammatical sense. It has been a long time since I've puzzled over writing like this.

Good characterisation though, as always, and the typical headlong rush into the dramatic ending didn't disappoint.

At Close Quarters

At Close Quarters At Close Quarters by Gerald Seymour


My review


rating: 4 of 5 stars
Another good Gerald Seymour, standard fare, but nail biting all the way. Loved the ending, seemed a bit rushed at first, but on reflection it was just right.
