"Vivi and Eva are two travelers in a countryside filled with the undead. After a train breaks down, stranding them between safe zones, the young women partner up to stay alive. Vivi is struggling with grief—and guilt—over the loss of her sister. Eva is hiding the start of a horrifying transformation. Together they'll face heat, zombie hordes, and their own inner demons, searching for signs of life in a land of the dead. This graphic novel addition to an enduring genre is thoughtful and emotion-driven, but also full of zombie scares and action."

I adored this graphic novel, though the art style took a few pages to get into. I wish Goodreads allowed half stars as this was a 4.5 read.
I was surprised at how, though it was short, I really loved Vivi and Eva. Graphic novels generally have less time to make their characters believable but Vieweg did a fantastic job. Vivi especially stood out to me as a layered character.
The zombies or the apocalypse aren't really explained but this meant that the story was free to be intriguing without getting bogged down in explanations. It just was.
I found myself satisfied with the length of their story, while also wanting more of the world. I'd happily read more.

The two protagonists – Vivi and Eva – where well developed characters, each with their own internal conflict that showed me that it is okay not be okay. Vivi blames herself for her sister’s death; this is something that has remained with her since the beginning. Meanwhile, Eva, after seeing and experiencing the new horrors of the world – is starting to transform into something there is no return from. Despite their inner troubles, Vivi’s and Eva’s friendship blossoms into something neither of them will forget or replace. I felt connected to Vivi and Eva throughout the book, which is something that I don’t always do when reading graphic novels due to their general shorter length.

The trigger warnings are a reminder of the struggles the characters have faced and will continue to do so. Gore, violence, death (of a child), and every horrid thing you would expect to find within a zombie apocalypse.

It took me a little bit to find this book! Turns out it's not in English on Goodreads lol.

Thank you to the publisher for giving me a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I read the description of this one and I was very excited. I'm usually not very into horror or gore however I thought I would give this one a try.

The story follows Vivi and Eva, two characters both looking into fleeing the city. One problem though, there is an apocalypse happening at the same time which means at any time they can get bitten by zombies or get mauled by whatever lives at their feet.

I really enjoyed this story so far. I'm very glad that there was a disclaimer because I low-key wasn't prepared for all of that, but I really loved it so I'm happy I got to read this. The story progreses well and it really gives a good glimpse at the character's life before everything hits the fan.
I thought it was a super interesting read and I might look more into the author of this one :D

I hadn’t read the synopsis before going into this so I had zero idea that this was about zombies and what happens after an apocalypse. Overall, I liked it. It was definitely creepy and gave me that shiver down my spine at certain moments and the art work kept my attention.

I was really confused at the beginning and I wish we would’ve gotten more information about the actual zombies and how everything with them worked.

Overall, this was just okay.

2/5 ⭐️

TW: blood, gore, death, suicide, body horror, death of a child.
