Everybody in the school seems to have the flu, at least that is what Bex and Charlie thought. Until both of them notice something strange with almost everyone in town. It seems that a video game Zombie town. This game was created by a company named Veratrum, a company that has made several games that Bex and Charlie have played.

After several incidents involving this company, Bex and Charlie decided not to play this game. This didn't stop the rest of the town from playing it. Even all the adults have been playing it. The next day Bex and Charlie wake up to a town full of zombies. The only ones besides Bex and Charlie are Marcus and Willa. The reason, none of them are playing this game.

They have named their little group Gamer Squad. As much as they don't want to play this game, they know the only way they can save the town is to install the game and play it. Could it be too late for the gamer squad? Hopefully, this little group will be able to do whatever they have to.

Kim Harrington writes a great book for children. However, I read it and was really glad I did. It really shows how kids and adults can get addicted to playing video games. I have to admit I do play several games on my computer.

Harrington gets right into the story, about how the zombies are taking over the town. Harrington does a great job of describing the zombies and what they look like. You can really picture them and see them walking all over this town. I plan on giving this book to my great nephew. So if anyone is looking to buy a game for a child, boy or girl, I think they will really like the APP OF THE LIVING DEAD.
