Welcome to Authorsden Richard Buzzell. I recently began writing reviews and below is my thoughts on ZombieStop Parade.
When I began reading this story, I expected zombies, the dead returning to life, panic, mystery and mayhem. The two main characters were not zombies but rather two young adults both pretty keen on inspiring others to stop acting zombies. Their vehicle of choice was an educational website called “ZombiesStop.” Corky, the young creator, much like a defiant child, saw himself as a leader to the ignorant and misinformed. He still preferred staying in the background and let his friend meet the media and answer the questions. Perhaps, Corky’s rebellion against big business was a product of too much passion, pouring over from his teenage past of having too much…too soon. There ensued a power struggle between Corky, his best friend, ZombieStopUno, a female FBI agent by the name of Sike, and a crooked CEO who was thought to be involved in money laundering and arson. This story was written in diary form going from one day’s events to the next. It was easy to follow and written with excellent English and a mastery of comedic names for the characters involved.
ZombieStop Parade would be a great read for college students who are just now beginning to decide on their future careers and how their own belief system can help or defeat them. The mental lift and the moral glow from birthing and debating new ideas can add up to the most exhilarating satisfaction in the world. This work of art is a semi-factual debate on the haves and have-nots. It is about big business, greed and the insurmountable need of humans to excel anyway they can. Money does make the world go around. From every new website comes a spiritual awakening monetarily or mentally. It is usually a surprise but an insight we would have stumbled on sooner or later in our lives. But, before we can recognize insights, we must be open to affirm we are of value, talented enough and naïve enough to rewrite our lives and be of service to others. In this world there are leaders and followers, winners and losers. It is good to turn our resources into gifts for others. Their diary soon became a book and Corky’s friend stepped out into the limelight. Corky held himself afar…perhaps being satisfied at last his friend was at last beginning his own accent out into the arena of the world. It is thought nothing changes the human condition over the years like a book of new ideas. This book is about debate solely - - us against the corporate mentality. Smooth, interesting read.
