In Russia, a socially divided country where corrupt rulers and capitalists often prey upon ordinary citizens, eight men endure harsh conditions beyond the Arctic Circle to work in the uninhabited Far North. One day, the workers lose all contact with civilization, and their supply deliveries cease. Upon learning that humanity has been plagued by a virus that turns people into zombies, the men agree to return home to Moscow. Together, they must travel several thousand kilometers to reach the capital—confronting bloodthirsty zombies, brutalized survivors, and widespread chaos that will test their strength and compatibility as it exposes civil grievances within a displaced society. Will they make it to Moscow alive?
Review of Russian HellwayZ: https://forums.onlinebookclub.org/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=195603
Have you ever imagined how the world would be if we had a zombie apocalypse? If this hasn’t crossed your mind yet, I suggest you read Igor Generalov’s Russian HellwayZ.
Igor’s book is an action-filled thriller that narrates the story of a group of men hired to work in Sengeisky, an isolated island in Russia. While at work, they lost complete ties with the rest of the world for more than five weeks. Also, every means of communication at are the company was dead. The radio equipment was down, and their truck driver, who delivers food to them, had not shown up for over one month. Curious to know what the problem was, these men embarked on a life-changing and awe-inspiring journey to Moscow, the Capital.
This book has a number of positive aspects that make it quite enjoyable. First and foremost, it is written in a conversational style. The characters interact with each other, and the narrative is not just from the author’s view. This piece is also descriptive and gives you a holistic view of the story. I was completely submerged when reading it. Secondly, this book’s setting and all the places mentioned in it are in Russia. And for ease of navigation, the author added maps intended to describe all the routes followed during the journey to the Capital. In addition, the author translated several alien terms in his book. For example, on page one, the author described a tulup as a coat worn in Russia.
Likewise, I also observed some negative aspects in the book. The most obvious flaw of this book is that the pages are not numbered, hence, making referencing completely difficult. Secondly, characters in the book had more than one name. The author interchanged their names throughout the book, and this made me confused severally. For instance, Alex is called Redkin; Misha is Myakin, Sergey is Doctor and Oleg is Engineer. I strongly believe that sticking to one name would be much better than switching these names at will. Lastly, the setting of this book is Russia. Thus, all the foods, drinks, places and people mentioned are in Russian language. Therefore, anyone who is not Russian may find it difficult to choose or read this book.
Russian HellwayZ is my best book this year, honestly. This is my first time reading a book that describes bloodthirsty zombies, just as I always see them in movies. The book is also exceptionally well-edited, but I would be rating it 3 out of 4 stars due to the flaws mentioned above. Moreover, this book is a good fit for anyone who loves action thrillers.
