Book Reviews of Walkers
Book Review: Another good horror novel from Gary Brandner. It's short, inventive, lean, and fast-moving.
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is about a young woman who drowns in a pool, has a near-death experience, and gets revived by an off-duty doctor who lives in the nearest apartment building.
After dancing for hours, she gets severe muscle cramps while swimming in the pool. (The book makes it seem like she got her swimmer's cramps because she ate right before swimming, but all eating would do is give you an abdomenal cramp, not a leg cramp.)
She goes under, loses consciousness, and drowns. She's technically dead for a short time, but either through her will to live or through the CPR of a doctor, she comes back.
While she was dead, she felt the pull of a dark entity and the presence of many lost souls.
The entity believes that she should have stayed dead and sends a series of emissaries to kill her. They are the reanimated corpses of the recently dead (the 'walkers' of the title).
