Jim Pike, the disillusioned manager of a hotel that is hosting a Star Trek
|
||
|
|
convention, finds himself leading a ragtag crew of survivors as a strange
|
||
|
|
virus turns the convention-goers into zombies...</p>

<p>I'm not a fan of zombie movies/books. But I'm a Star Trek fan. And oh boy,
|
||
|
|
this is a fun book.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>While some events in the story may be too cliché (specially in the zombie
|
||
|
|
genre), the way the author interweaves with Star Trek philosophy and Trek
|
||
|
|
fandom is brilliant. And also gets bonus points for not doing "A red shirt on
|
||
|
|
the Enterprise gets infected with a virus and starts zombifying everyone";
|
||
|
|
instead, it takes the <em>fandom</em> and infects its.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>And while the cliché parts, although cliché, fit the story, the fact that the
|
||
|
|
author also goes into deep in what Star Trek is and what it represents to its
|
||
|
|
fans, it's pretty damn amazing.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>I really really liked it.</p>
