I really like this book. But, this whole "Shaun of the Dead" thing, I think, is a little goofy. Basically, Beasel, a demon spawn, planted the spring that's the Fountain of Youth, in their town. Now, he's upset because, with everything that has happened, his access to said fountain has been denied. That and he's just not happy with all the townsfolk using it all these years. So anyways he come back to town to make the citizens pay for their under-appreciation. To do so, he's enlisted 2 heralds. One of which is Emoticon. And he's also raised all the dead in town to be his army. But one of Beasel's ole nemesis, I can't remember his name, has also come back to take him down. He's like this kinda' old west type of looking guy. You know . . . gunslinger and all. But he's got these special bullets that can take him down. The only problem is, Beasel isn't going to let him use them. But then Minxy crashes her new plane on him. Meanwhile, Tommy, the sheriff, is getting the lowdown on the story from Salabal. She's like the goddess of Earth or something. Mr. Articulate, even though he's dead, comes to the aid of the Pink Bunny, when she's about to be attacked by the zombies, because he's still in love with her. And Emoticon has come to an emotional crisis, when Beasel tells him to kill Captain Cobra and Mongoose Man. But all he sees are 2 frail old guys. So it looks like he's going to have to use the gunslingers bullets himself to take down Beasel. But somethings wrong because when he tells Beasel what he's going to do, he simply tells him " . . that was always the plan." So now . . . I don't know what to expect. I still love the book. I just find the current storyline . . . a little hard to swallow.
