ORIGINAL SYNOPSIS
Seventeen-year-old Eva is a chosen one. Chosen to live, while others meet a swift and painful death from an incurable virus so lethal, a person is dead within days of symptoms emerging. In the POD system, a series of underground habitats built by the government, she waits with the other chosen for the deadly virus to claim those above. Separated from family and friends, it's in the PODs she meets David. And while true love might not conquer all, it's a balm for the broken soul.
After a year, scientists believe the population has died, and without living hosts, so has the virus. That's the theory, anyway. But when the PODs are opened, survivors find the surface holds a vicious secret. The virus mutated, infecting those left top-side and creating... monsters.
Eva and David hide from the infected in the abandoned PODs. Together they try to build a life--a new beginning. But the infected follow and are relentless in their attacks. Leaving Eva and David to fight for survival, and pray for a cure.

NAT'S REVIEW
Usually I like my Zombie apocaplyse novels to have a bit more ... Oh I don't know … Zombies in it! But this was still a good read. The story had a pretty interesting start but by the time I got to the middle of the book I was dying for some undead villains to arrive.
The romance between Eva and David was TO-DIE-FOR!
No really! Those two were beyond head over heels for each other. The fight they put up to be together is what kept me going for the first half of the book. Well, that and Eva being a total bad ass!
Go head and tell Eva she doesn't need a weapon in a post zombie apocalyptic world because that is what the men are there for and see if doesn't knock your rotting head of your shoulders with a bat!
Anyway if you need a book to read to pass the time on that long train ride home or something else to do when you should be doing your already late homework assignment you should really give PODs a shot.
