I'd give this one 3.5 stars if I could. Second of Higson's post-apocalyptic/zombie trilogy, this was better than the first. The characters were better drawn, and we're getting to know more about how the other survivors are living in zombie-plagued London. I'm looking forward to the third book, if only so I can stop thinking about the living dead for awhile.

* Update - This isn't the second book, it's the third! (I think the clue is in the title as listed on GoodReads.) I'm so disappointed that I've read these out of order, but it doesn't seem to matter. Each book covers a different set of kids and timelines. If that's the case, then this book ends on a cliffhanger, and I'm looking forward to the next installment!
