The Walking Dead: Invasion 3/5
I also find it quite annoying that he constantly uses characters full names throughout the books. It's like he think we'll forget who these people are so we have to be repeatedly reminded. In a zombie apocalypse there isn't much need for a last name so why keep throwing them at us? Is it a weak attempt to beef up the word count? I was a student, I know the tricks.
Let's begin by saying that I enjoyed the idea of this book much better than the book itself. Compared to the other books in this series it fell flat. It felt too empty and seemed so short. One of the few things on like about these books are the characters... barely. They seem too much like characters rather than people. I want to feel their struggle. I want to feel involved but it's hard when these characters are nothing more than just descriptions on paper.
My major complaint is the writing style. Word choice and variety are very important to me when reading. I feel like he has words that he likes to use but instead of lightly sprinkling through the writing, they are thrown in whenever possible. I guess a word he doesn't know is "sparingly".
