Note to self: Stop one-clicking on Amazon freebies.SPOILERS.This is more like a novella and I stopped at 58%.

I don't even think this should be shelved as a zombie book. There are no zombies in this.

Here is the first of many images of the Sundered Heart from Revenge of the Sith, a Corellian CR70 corvette in the service of the Alderaan diplomatic corps, later the Rebel Alliance navy.

Basically, people get sick in the brain from a 'wonder weight loss drug' (that is supposed to have other health benefits too) and that is what causes them to be extra extra hungry. They can't bite people and turn them into 'zombies.' The only way they could multiply their numbers is to Note to self: Stop one-clicking on Amazon freebies.SPOILERS.This is more like a novella and I stopped at 58%.

They can't bite people and turn them into 'zombies.' The only way they could multiply their numbers is to procreate. Have babies.Plus, it's got all this silly romantic stuff with a subplot of a couple trying to get pregnant and the main character is obsessed with her weight (and her husband's).

I mean, at first, I was like, oh cool, MCs who don't have perfect bodies, but I don't want to repeatedly hear you angsting over it.OH! How could I forget the most ANNOYING thing?! The husband goes and gets the 'wonder drug' shot behind his wife's back and doesn't tell her until there's a rabid human pack trying to get past their gate and in their house. Smart move there, eh guy.I feel like it had potential, but the overall story was rushed, and I just feel cheated out of what I thought was going to be a zombie story. These are not real zombies. They are like rabid human packs, wandering around for food, acting/hunting like wild wolves. Just not what I thought.

And not in a good way.:(Buddy read with the starting July 19, 2015 for Zombiefest July. I think this one has a little bit of lurv in it too. Not zombie lurv, but between the MCs. Well, you didn't expect me to say anything different did you? It is a great fun read, fast paced, just the way I like my books. There's a nitty gritty cliffhanger at the end, but I won't leave you hanging too long. The second book in the series, Bound, will be out in the middle of the month and there is an excerpt at the back of Sundered.What else can I tell you?

Sundered is meant to get your blood pumping and stop you from putting it down. It is a romance, so all of you romance readers can be Well, you didn't expect me to say anything different did you? It is a great fun read, fast paced, just the way I like my books.

Sundered is meant to get your blood pumping and stop you from putting it down. It is a romance, so all of you romance readers can be assured that I hold true to that genre. But it is also a little dark, scary and might make you jump in places.I hope you have as much fun reading Sundered as I did writing it and please leave me a review, I would love to know what you all think about my first published piece.:). Any time you name a miracle drug off a line from an Edgar Allan Poe poem you can bet your bottom bucky it's gonna be a horror show.NEVERMORE was - overall - a fast, enjoyable read.

The 'zombies' were a little different, so points for creativity. It also creates different layers of conflict and suspense that sets it apart from the standard fair.Occasionally I felt like the characters were being reckless or setting themselves up for failure, mostly as an excuse to introduce more drama and peril.

It wasn't as annoying as it could have been and - honestly - I felt like some of their reactions were more believable and justifiably vulnerable than most books in the genre strive to depict. Between these two, I feel it balances out.Interesting start and I'll probably read on with the series.3.5 Review.I dont talk about my daughter very often, (mostly because shes three and obsessed with Hello Kitty) but a few days ago she said something interested (and coincidentally enough; evidence that Im not mature enough to raise the nations future leaders.shrugs.)

I.3.5 Review.I don’t talk about my daughter very often, (mostly because she’s three and obsessed with Hello Kitty) but a few days ago she said something interested (and coincidentally enough; evidence that I’m not mature enough to raise the nations future leaders.shrugs.) We were sitting in front of the television (just the two of us) a bowl of popcorn in hand prepared for some quality mother/daughter time when the topic of “entertainment choices” came up.“T, what do you want to watch honey?” I asked in my very formal, I’m a totally proper parent way.Her reply? “I don’t care.” (Naturally, she is of course a kid.)So, finding myself at a total loss (mostly because I didn’t want to land on Nick Jr.

And be coaxed into watch another episode of Dora The Explorer – or I’d be forced to gouge out my own eyeballs) I pulled up the guide, quickly found the movie channels, and began surfing.This is when things got interesting.Just as I was about to flip to HBO family (otherwise known as straight to cable cheesy kid movies R Us) she saw something that piqued her interest.“Oh mommy!!!! Let’s watch that!!!” (insert mile wide smile)“What?”“That mommy, (points to the number “28″ (from 28 Days Later) on the guide.)“Oh, babythat’s zombies. Don’t you want to watch princesses?”.annoyed look. “I want zombies mommy.

Zombies are cool, they eat your face.”“Yes, yes they do. Are you sure you want to watch that?”“Yes mommy!!!

Princess are poopie! I want zombies!”So I turned it on and we sat in total rapture for 2 hours.The moral of the story? I’m a horrible parent. Also, this is a zombie book and I couldn’t think of any other way to open my review than to throw my parenting skills under the bus.“A miracle drug, Nevermore, spreads like wildfire throughout the world allowing people to eat what they want, no matter how unhealthy it is and yet still lose weight. It is everything the human population has ever dreamed of and Mara is no different.

Only a simple twist of fate stops her from taking the drug.As the weeks roll by, it becomes apparent that Nevermore is not the miracle it claimed. A true to life nightmare, the drug steals the very essence that makes up humanity and unleashes a new and deadly species on the world, a species bent on filling its belly. Locked down within their small farm home, Mara and her husband Sebastian struggle against increasingly bad odds, fighting off marauders and monsters alike.But Sebastian carries a dark secret, one that more than threatens to tear them apart, it threatens to destroy them both and the love they have for each other.The secret forces Mara to make the ultimate choice. Will she live for love, or will she live to survive?”The one thing that I find absolutely imperative (. If I had know this was a serial I never would have picked it up. I hate serials.

Add to that the premise of this book was horrible. A drug called Nevermore that cures everything?

And no one is suspicious? I've listened to all the side effects for the drugs on the market that are just trying to help one issue. And it's called Nevermore? Ugh.Also, there is an apocalypse going on and no one seems all that rushed about anything. They are just taking their own sweet time getting supplies and If I had know this was a serial I never would have picked it up.

The only part of this that intrigued me is the idea that the infected have a pack mentality. Other than that nothing good here. Don't waste your time.

In this age of instant gratification, where hucksters and snake oil salesman bark nonstop pitching the latest miracle diet supplement scam and every other ad on television is for an erection drug or a plastic surgeon, the book’s concept is more timely than ever. The fictional drug in Sundered is called Nevermore and given its health transforming, beauty enhancing properties, it is highly believable that Nevermore would instantly become the must have rage across all of North America.Of course, usually when something sounds too good to be true, it is.

Like all drugs Nevermore has a side effect. A side effect that sets off a set piece of exciting suspense sequences that will keep you turning the page.Author Shannon Mayer opens Sundered with the careful attention to detail and character one would expect in a work of literature. The sense of place and character is economically established and the reader is immediately drawn into the Canadian country side setting and emotionally connects to the main character Mara.

The character is challenged and tested as she is pushed to the limit by the events in the story, and the reader learns much about her throughout the adventure. There is a terrific mountain man character by the name of Dan who steals every scene he is in. A great character who I imagined being played by Tommy Lee JonesAlthough Sundered may start out like an artful piece of woman’s fiction, it deftly shifts gears into George Romero meets Richard Matheson with a touch of Resident Evil.

Posted: 2 AprilAs far as metroidvania goes this game plays it very by the numbers. The only thing setting it apart is it's somewhat one dimensional eldritch setting.

Corrupt, yes or no.Controls don't feel very nice. Constantly have the feel that i'm ice skating and it even feels worse when you get air born. When fighting half the time i keep on dash attacking even though I definitely didn't want to.

I have to actually be careful that I stand still and just spam attack to not fly all over the place.Level design is bland and boring. Everything looks the same with a slightly different pastel color. Same goes for the enemies. Pay little attention to them and just fly all over the place while damaging them. Your abilities don't feel significant and more mandatory.Boss design also isn't great. Try and damage them as much as possible, but once you get caught out they keep on piling the damage preventing your shield from regenerating or you from getting any footing, resulting in frustrating deaths.

Cute cat cut rope videos. With new characters, fresh gameplay elements and tricky missions, candy collecting has never been so fun! Watch our Walkthrough for this game. In his unexpected adventure, Om Nom breaks out of his box and travels through lush forests, busy cities, junkyards and underground tunnels, all in pursuit of one goal – CANDY! Om Nom's shenanigans continue in Cut the Rope 2! Along the way, he encounters the Nommies, the cutest candy collecting helpers a little green monster could wish for!.Need help?

This is even made more frustrating when you are being pelted from every side and it actually feels like you are ice skating around to some of safe haven.I really want like this game. I'm a sucker for anything that smells remotely like tentacly horror, but this experience was more frustrating than fun. Posted: 1 AprilI can't say enough good things about Sundered.

When I first read it was going to be procedurally generated levels I was skeptical, but I felt it deserved a chance. Man, this game is so brilliantly designed. There is a core structure to the maps but the pieces of the map that fill in the blanks between major areas are procedurally generated, so it keeps it fresh every time you play it. The powers, and the abilities to tweak them the way you want, and the effects that has on the story, create a stunning level of symmetry that some of the best game developers of all time have struggled to pull off. This easily deserves to be put alongside the best of Metroidvania, promise you will not be dissapointed.
