If you’ve read Zombie Plague, you already know. If you’re starting with Zombie War, you might want to stop reading this because there will be **SPOILERS** galore!!

From the first book, we’ve learned the undead can revert back to a normal human. Nobody really understands how, but don’t look a gift horse in the mouth. These newly cured people can then “reanimate” other undead. This is such a cool concept! Problem solved, if the zombies were limited in number instead of nearly the entire population of Calgary.

The hunt is on to find more survivors. The Scouters and Scouts are unsure of how their respective families faired the onslaught. A crew is selected to go search. More zombie habits are discovered. Maybe things will get easier? Of course not. Turns out the group is on a time crunch.

The hunt is also on to find people to create a more wide-spread cure. Which leads to yet another roadblock – how do you only cure the less injured zombies? The more damaged zombies would “reanimate” just long enough to scream in pain and then die again.

This was definitely an exciting read! Read this book for yourself and you’ll understand my statement.

A group of Scouters and Scouts head out into the wilds of Canada for their annual survivor training. At night, they sit around the campfire and sing songs. Star-gazing is perfect out away from the lights of civilization. The Scouters and Scouts are only away for a single night. While heading home, the group focuses on remaining safe while looking for living people. Unfortunately, not everyone survives. How can the world around them go so wrong in such a short period of time?

Survival tip: Go camping out in the middle of nowhere to avoid becoming a zombie. :)

This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.
This was a great sequel to Boy Superhero. Hopefully there are more books coming in this series. I think that it would come across well to the age group it is aimed at. The story moves along well and the characters were developed more from the first book. There are lots of positive lessons to be learned as the story progresses. Although this book is not aimed at my age group, it was still one that I found to be a nice diversion for me.
