The much-anticipated prequel to zombie romance WARM BODIES, now a major film Discover the prequel to Isaac Marion's cult zombie romance Warm Bodies Julie Grigio drives with her parents through the crumbling wastelands of America - a nightmarish family road trip in search of a new home. A few hundred miles away, Nora Greene finds herself the reluctant, terrified guardian of her younger brother when her parents abandon them in the not-quite-empty ruins of Seattle. In the darkness of a forest, a dead man in a red tie opens his eyes. With no memory of who or what he is, he must unravel the grim mystery of his existence - right after he learns how to think, how to walk, and how to satisfy the monster howling in his belly... Two warped families and a lonely monster. Unknown to any of them, their paths are set to cross in a startling encounter that will change the course of their lives - or deaths - forever.
We couldnt wait to read this prequel and we werent disappointed * Bella *
I was hooked throughout this book and read it in one sitting, knowing that it was building to a somewhat shocking conclusion * Wondrous Reads *
Marion's style remains pleasingly poetic * SFX *
Young adult fare with intelligence and very scary and often sad moments and will appeal equally to an older reader * Love Reading *
