'synopsis' may belong to another edition of this title.īook Description Paperback. I loved it and would recommend it to any horror enthusiast. This book is loaded with believable characters who come alive and might even share character traits with people that you know.

The world is as bleak as you would imagine it to be after a zombie apocalypse, but it's the survivors and their struggles(combating the risen dead as well as their own personal demons) that really make this trip totally worthwhile. *** 5.0 out of 5 stars Lament for the Living takes a step away from other 'after the outbreak' survival tales by focusing on the people who bring about what humanity should be known for - their ability to adapt and survive.
