It's more than a couple of months now since my Sniper Elite-linked short story Nazi Zombie Army: Götterdämmerung was released upon an unsuspecting public.
If you've not read it, it's action-packed, it's grim and gritty, and I can see it appealing to the current generation of pubescent gamers in particular. It seems that a certain mom from the US thought the same...
I downloaded this book onto my tablet for my 14 year old son as I was desperate
to find something he would read. Having always struggled to get him to start a
book, let alone finish it, I knew I had to find something that had elements
similar to the games he loves playing on Xbox. When I found this I was a tad
excited - Nazis, Zombies and full on adventure, how could he resist?
All I can
say is congratulations to the author, my son actually chose to turn his Xbox off
at night and it was a great pleasure for me to see him curled up in bed,
enjoying a book. He finished it within a week, an unheard of experience!
I also
read this as I wanted to see just exactly what had intrigued my son so much, and
even though the story itself isn't something I would usually choose, this
author does have a real talent at grabbing the reader from page one and taking
them on a wild ride. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone,
especially people with teen boys, its exactly the kind of thing they love!
5 stars!
So there you go. If you're a teen boy, or you know one, or you belong to that group none as 'anyone', why not download a copy of Nazi Zombie Army: Götterdämmerung yourself today?
"The modern master of the gamebook format" (Rob Sanders)... "Can do dark very well" (Jonathan Oliver)... "Green gets mileage out of his monsters" (SFX Magazine)... "It takes a firm editorial hand and a keen understanding of the tone of each piece to make a collection this diverse work, and Green makes it look effortless" (Starburst Magazine)... "A charming blend of camp creatures, humour, and genuine horror" (Set the Tape)
