This was an amazing book Although heartbreaking in the end. Angie Graves is a dog handler. She trains bomb dogs, cadaver dogs and now a dog to hunt zombies. Murder is a good dog, but hasn't taken to past attempts to train. When he smells the Giant Crimson Wasp, its as though he was born to hunt. And this is how he becomes the world's first zombie hunting dog.

Book Title: Cadaver Dog
Author: Doug Goodman
Format: Kindle
Genre: Fantasy

Book Title:
The title ' Cadaver Dog ' is interesting and self-explanatory. The title suggests that the plot is based upon a Dog as the main character.

Book Cover:
The cover is a simple image of a great valley with wonderful picturesque.

Plot:
Angie is a lone young woman who prefers to be with her dogs than the people. Once, she finds an almost dead dog on the side of the road, saves him, nurses him back to health and trains him to find the Zombie Wasp.

The storyline is very different and the rarest type but, the author has developed it into a believable story about how zombies could really come to exist in the real world with all the zombie controllers.


What I like:
1.The training of the dog by the female character to fight against the zombies
2.The bond between Angie and the dog
3. The attack and rescue sequences

What I didn't like:
Nothing to dislike, but was unable to focus as it was a fantasy genre.
The story is more for the fantasy genre fans and people who love pets. As I am away from these two, it was difficult for me to get inside the story. But once the actual mission of the attack against zombies started, I felt engrossed in the story.

Characters:
The readers can observe that Murder( the dog ) and Angie Graves ( The female character ) are scripted well in the plot.

Narration:
Interesting narration

Language & Grammar:
A very fine usage of grammar and language is found.

My Final Verdict:
A definite read for fantasy genre lovers

Book Title: 3/5

I have received the ARC copy of the sequel of this book. Therefore, before reading and posting the review, I thought to myself that I shall complete reading the first part and hence my review is here.

This is an absolutely awesome version of the zombie apocalypse. Most zombie stories are all the same - unknown virus - people affected by virus become zombies - zombies bite other people creating more zombies. I love those books too but Cadaver Dog has a totally different reason behind the apocalypse. No virus but a giant wasp!

Angie Graves is a Search and Rescue volunteer. She trains all varieties of scent dogs for individuals or police. Doug Goodman who is a human remains dog trainer, explains how Angie does her training but it is not heavily detailed to the point of boredom. Animal Control is in charge of capturing the sited zombies. Angie Graves has been asked by the entomologist working with Animal Control if she could train one of her dogs to be a 'zombie' dog.

She is up for the challenge even though using a large (hand-sized) wasp for scent gives her the heebie jeebies. The Director of Animal Control is convinced that robots are much more capable of finding zombies than a dog. Angie plans to prove him wrong.

This is an unusual look at the zombie theme which I found refreshing. Anyone who likes to read books about the undead will surely enjoy Cadaver Dog.

I received this book free from the author for review purposes. For more information about Doug Goodman and his other books, check out http://www.douggoodman.net/apps/blog/ ( )

I received a copy of this book for an honest review. First of all I want to say that this story had two of my favorite things: dogs and zombies. I really liked the idea of training a dog to find Zombies and missing people. The plot was interesting and characters were really likable. The book had a creepy feel to it and kept me interested. I would definitely recommend it if you are interested in reading something with horror, action and drama. ( )
