The story follows Jim - a father who is making his way across the country to save his son - and a group of survivors who join him along the way. The Rising is an excellent zombie novel with non-stop action and a great cast of characters. And for Jim and his companions, an even greater evil awaits them at the end of their journey. They must battle both the living and the living dead. Joined by an elderly preacher, a guilt-ridden scientist, and a determined ex-prostitute, Jim embarks on a cross-country rescue mission. Despite overwhelming odds, Jim vows to find him- or die trying. But Jim’s young son is alive and in dire peril hundreds of miles away. Trapped by the undead, escape seems impossible for Jim Thurmond. The dead are returning to life as intelligent zombies. The Rising by Brian Keene is one of my favorite debut novels of all time.
