The world ended on Halloween night. A dangerous game brought it back to life. How do you survive The Game? Follow the rules of the Game Master. Avoid the Bellows and make it to the Safe Zone, acquiring points along the way. Seventeen-year-old Michael and his five-year-old brother Patrick are trying to do just that. But when The Game and the Bellows start changing, how will they ever be able to win? 
 This book is a bit different than I was expecting it to be. It's one of those books that leaves you with some serious mixed signals on whether or not you liked it. The idea is a unique one, for sure. The execution is a little questionable at times, but still intriguing enough to keep one wanting to turn those pages. It definitely took me a few chapters to get my footing. You're immediately thrown into the action and it never stops to really let you catch your breath. It took me half the book to get used to the writing style and at the end I still never felt 100% comfortable with it. And then the book ends just as abruptly as it begun leaving me with a feeling of "Now what?" 
 If you like zombie stories this is a unique enough take that you'll probably enjoy it. The Bellows are aptly named, yelling back long echos of the things that our main characters say. There's a definite creepy vibe to this book that fans of horror will be able to appreciate.
