Publisher's summary

Jack Jupiter knows zombies. He's written about them for years. So when Jack's mother passes away in a freak car accident involving a half-eaten deer and a pack of cigarettes, he also knows something's up. Now, Jack and his fiancé, Darlene, are forced to go back to the dreadful town of Woodhaven, Ohio, for his mom's funeral.

But what he doesn't know is it might be their funeral, too.

A few months before Jack and Darlene's arrival, a mysterious flu-like virus swept through the town, infecting nearly every citizen. Now, like ticking time-bombs ready to explode, everyone is dropping dead. But they aren't staying dead. No, they're coming back as flesh-eating zombies.

Not only will Jack Jupiter have to bury his mother, confront high school bullies, and save Darlene, but he'll have to fight the dead in order to stay alive. And these aren't like the zombies from his books.

These walking corpses are real.

Good writing

This could have been a stellar zombie story if the main character was not such a annoying wimp.

Main character starts off as a whiner but matures!

Jack Jupiter was initially SO ANNOYING that I wasn't certain I would finish the book, much less continue the series. But as things get wild in the scary new world, he grows favorably during the story. I must admit it--I'm hooked, I'm hooked, I'm ABSOLUTELY hooked!

wellll....

The zombie action was as good as any out there. The main character was whiny and unappealing through out the whole book. And wow -the author really hates smokers and between the two I won't continue the series.

Boring Zombie Read

The writing is amateurish. The pacing is horrible. The action was somehow dull. Check out Keith C Blackmore for a good zombie read.

predictable

The book is drawn out and predictable. I doubt I'll bother with the rest of the series

Jack needs a spine

Dead Haven book 1 was okay. Jack Jupiter (eye roll at the name) is a wimp. He’s grown and semi successful yet allows his high school bully to attack him and every word out of his mouth is about his fiancé…super annoying. He isn’t very likable and I was hoping the zombies got Darlene (eye roll again). The story has potential and was pretty fast paced. I hope Jack gets himself together in boom 2. Overall a decent read.
