ZOMBIES DON’T CRY

Book ID/图书代码: 08855011B44965

English Summary/英文概要: Maddy Swift is just a normal girl—a high school junior surviving class with her best friend and hoping the yummy new kid, Stamp, will ask her out. When he finally does, her whole life changes.

Sneaking out to meet Stamp at a party one rainy night, Maddy is struck by lightning. After awakening, she feels lucky to be alive. Over time, however, Maddy realizes that she’s become the thing she and everyone else fear most: the living dead.

With no heartbeat and no breath in her lungs, Maddy must learn how to survive as a zombie. Turns out there’s a lot more to it than shuffling around 24/7 growling, “Brains.” Needing an afterlife makeover is only the beginning of her problems. As Barracuda Bay High faces zombie Armageddon, Maddy must summon all of her strength to protect what matters most—just as soon as she figures out exactly what that is.

REVIEWS:
“Fischer really goes all out with this and makes zombies not must-have-brains, shuffling, decaying monsters but brings them up to a level of awesome that was previously only for vampires and werewolves.”---Urban Bachelorette

“A great introduction to a truly unique world, Zombies Don’t Cry sets the bar high for YA horror novels.”---Colum McKnight, Paperback Horror

This book is witty, funny, romantic, and downright brilliant. I highly recommend it to lovers of paranormal romance as well as readers who just want a breath of fresh air in the YA market.”---Trisha Wolfe, YA Bound (March 2011)

“Dedicated zombie fans will want to read this book and may clamor for a sequel.“---Kirkus Reviews (March 15, 2011)

“Truly terrifying, this is filled with action and a sizzle of romance, along with dances, death, and back-stabbing BFFs.“---Romantic Times (April 2011)

This book has a good combination of humor, romance and action. Rusty Fischer has a teenage girl’s thoughts and actions portrayed as they think and do. Teenagers can easily relate to the characters in this book. I felt like I’ve known Maddy my whole life. I could not put this book down, I had to know what happened next. I hope Fischer writes a second book.”---Casey J. Covert, Horror Web (March 2011)

"ZOMBIES DON’T CRY is not only a great YA book, but it is also a great zombie book. Rusty Fischer throws the reader curves on the living dead mythos including by introducing the Sentinels, the Elders, the Zerkers and adding new twist with eating brains, copper stakes, graveyard dirt and the fact that zombies can’t shed tears. Highly recommended for the young and the young at heart."---Michael McCarty, Horror World (March 2011)

“I love zombies books and Zombies Don’t Cry by Rusty Fischer was an extremely cool one. There aren’t many zombie books featuring zombies fighting zombies. Fans of zombie teen fiction (one of the coolest genres of all times) will want to pick this up and read it immediately.”---Night Owl Teen (March 2011)

“Zombies Don’t Cry is a world with a whole new set of rules, and it’s a gruesome but groovy place to be. I didn’t want it to end. What happens next? C’mon, man, don’t leave me hanging! I’m hoping like crazy for a sequel.”---All-Consuming Books (April 22, 2011)

5/5 Stars
“Rusty has came out with remarkable talent and left me wanting to read more of his work!”---Uniquely Moi Books (April 18, 2011)

". . . everyone will be surprised how this book goes. From the ridiculous (in a good way) funny to very serious."---Candace’s Book Blog (April 17, 2011)

“I love how the book is not only focused on how to become a zombie [but] focuses also on friendship, betrayal, trust, loss, sacrifice and love." ---Palm Books Journal (April 18, 2011)

“Who knew zombies could be this awesome?”---Bibliophilic Book Blog

"This is how you read a novel: you inhale the experience. So start breathing" ---Azar Nafisi.
