Book Reviews of The Walking Dead, Vol. 9: Here We RemainBook Review: Finally moving forward again Summary: 5 Stars
I love Sergeant Abraham. FINALLY someone lays out the problem with gunshots and how they draw zombies to the source. Even better, he and his group have a new threat: herds.
The former story arc of the Governor and his crazy militia was entertaining and a good look at how people follow the leader just because he's the leader and not for any other reason. Certainly not for any defensible reason as the Governor was clearly off his nut. As volumes 5,6,7, and 8 unfolded I gobbled them up. I could see it all going down that way and it made for a fascinating read. But, that story ended in the only way it ever could have, a showdown. And Rick and Company lost. Not only did they lose, they lost BIG.
Once, I went to meet a friend (before everybody had cell phones). We messed up the location and ended up searching each other out over the period of an evening. After that we agreed on a set meeting place, all the time, every time. It only took a minor inconvenience to hit on that plan. And yet, all these people were in a prison and NEVER ONCE thought of an alternate plan, a meeting point, in case an attack (which was basically guaranteed to happen at some point) overran their defenses? Given the amount of time they were there, talking to each other, I just thought some of the basics of survival would have been brought up. Particularly by the parents if no one else.
And now they have been brought to the forefront. Cue Abraham, enter, stage left. FINALLY a person is back in a major role with some smarts. They are in a war zone. Everything and everyone is potentially dangerous (even on clear day with no noise I wouldn't let my son out of my sight to pee; go next to the car!), so start acting like it.
Now the new Rick and Company have a reasonable target: D.C. Something to keep them going and give them hope. Perhaps false hope, but at least with direction. Which is what they mostly need, a direction to go in and a way to channel their energy. It's what keeps most people moving even now, pre-zombie breakdown of order and law. I look forward to reading this and seeing how it all plays out.
