And now.....here's a cool review of.....

Hey all , 
      You know that it seems like that I have gone into hiding from the world of creativeness or at least related to what it is I have stay about what I believe is important in the way of literature. Earlier today I went to Barnes and Noble out at our mall called Coumbia Center yet before I went looking around for the books seen here
    Kitchen counter, I found a big comfortable chair near the front of the store's enterance I went and finshed  the best offbeat story of mixed up fun that I have been reading since last October. Now before I begin this review remember when I was looking at the month of scares I was wanting to really get my blood to be chilled to the bone but it truly turns out that I was also wanting to find a novel or book that gave me a chance to really and truly experience my own INNER DARKNESS in my way of READING INTO THE UNKNOWN.....Yet I found out that I can't access anything except good ol science fiction of sorts. 
              This book between the incredible hulk beanie and spider-man beanie babies is called
"NIGHT OF THE LIVING TREKKIES" that is both conceived by two Trek fans that also have a fascinating itch of loving horror in the way of Zombies, their names are Sam Stall and Kevin David Anderson. The tease of the book in part is Journey to the final frontier of Sci-Fi zombie horror! Jim Pike (you  can see right where this is going if your a true Star Trek fan/nerd/lover of geek ness.....) was the world's biggest Star Trek fan - until two tours of duty in Afghanistan destroyed his faith in the human race. Now he sleepwalks through life as the assistant manager of a small hotel in downtown Houston.  But when hundreds of Trekkies arrive in his lobby for a science fiction convention, Jim finds  himself surrounded by costumed Klingons, Vulcans, and Ferengi - plus a strange virus that transforms it's carriers into savage, flesh-eating Zombies!
           This story has so much fun with itself you can tell the two writers took everything that they know of Star Trek's many incantations from the original series to Voyager and tossed in zombie movie favorites like "The return of the living dead (1985)", "Zombieland (2009)" and finally I am guessing the most important one that they based this work of literature off is "Night of the living dead  (1968)". It flows in a science grabbing you by the throat action in the reader's face without being completely dark. The one of many neat things they did was they had each chapter relatively related to it being Star Trek known by each one have a spin on a certain episode of the series in someway or other. I really loved the laughs in this novel from the music of William Shatner on the hotel's main intercom in the elevator, Jim's sister Rayna's main way of getting to the convention is priceless and the name of the hotel is named after a certain ship that Enterprise runs into in the episode known as "space seed", putting your thinking caps may be needed here if you are not a Trek fan yet the answer is the hotel's name is Botany Bay which is Khan Noonien Singh's ship from in the year 2267. Now here is a great tease for other science fiction fans to want to read this gem her name is Shelly Dumpkin and who she is in this is, well you're not going to get the answer from me! 
     Overall I have to give this book a rating of Extremely Transporter safety measures MUST BE ON AT ALL TIMES... For if not the fun in this existence will leave you dead with laughter, I give it  an A PLUS!
