I can’t ever resist a zombie horror book. Got a good one to share with you today.
The Death Doll
by Brian P. White
Genre: Horror / Apocalypse / Zombies
My Review
The Death Doll takes place two years after the zombie apocalypse went down. Now, bands of survivors struggle to survive the desolation.
One band is lead by Didi. In her previous life she was a porn star and looks the part. Statuesque and voluptuous, don’t let her looks deceive you. She’s a force to be reckoned with. Her mission. Provide for the community and keep everyone alive, at all costs. And the costs are high. The zombies aren’t the only thing they have to worry about. Other survivors want what they have. And the Death Doll stalks the unwitting.
I love Didi. She never shies away from danger. In fact, she steps right up to it. And her steadfast efforts to keep her band of survivors safe is incredible. Especially when there’s grumbling in the ranks and many aren’t so sure about their leader. And maybe they have reason to worry.
Right from the beginning you know Didi has secrets. The author peels them away slowly, surprising you in ways you never suspected. As the group learns her secrets, things go sideways and this is the part I loved the most. Group dynamics are fascinating. Put a bunch of people together, scare them, and you discover who steps up and who throws the monkey wrench in the works.
There’s plenty of action and intrigue to keep the story rolling in The Death Doll. And a lot of surprises await you. A fast read for me and one I’m glad I read.

Synopsis
Didi was once the darling of the porn industry, baring it all for the world on the silver screen. Then came the zombie apocalypse. Two years later, she’s killing every flesh-eating corpse in her path to protect a group of unlikely survivors in northwest Iowa. Unfortunately, she hides a terrifying secret that threatens every life she defends. For nothing left on Earth that creeps or crawls is as lethal as The Death Doll.

You’d like Didi. She kind of reminds me of Scar Sherry. In a different kind of way. Can’t tell you what this means though. LOL
I’m still not sure about this one! I like the sound of the zombie aspect but I’m not sure about joining the story so long after the apocalypse…might need to sample this one!
I want to tell you to go ahead and grab it but we do feel differently about some of the same books. I can tell you that even though the zombies are still a threat, it’s more focused on the human threat. There’s a twist that makes it very interesting. Try a sample:)
I love the title. 🙂
So do I! I’m anxious to see where the author goes with this series.
