Thanks go to Quercus for providing me with a copy for review. It’s not all action but a much more introspective, quiet book that I feel would even appeal to readers who don’t like zombies. One of the most wonderful things about Let the Right One In (I’m talking about the film since I never did get around to reading the book) is the inversion of the human/monster binary. Translated from the original Swedish by Ebba Segerberg, there are a few clunky sentences and odd phrases but not enough to get in the way of the powerful storytelling. Handling the Undead is Lingvist’s second novel and takes the same subtle and human approach to vampirism he used in his debut and this time applies it to zombies. If it is one of the people you love most in the world, what can you do but carry on loving them? Fear and hatred can only have negative consequences but what happens if we can be compassionate… They are not out to eat brains but understandably people are scared of them. The reliving are still corpses but animated somehow. It’s really quite a moving and thought-provoking book. To both families, the zombies are not some horror film come to life but a chance to hope that there is life after death. Mahler lost his grandson, Anna her son, two months before and are still struggling to come to terms with his death. David has lost his wife in a car crash but can’t bring himself to tell his son that she’s either dead or undead. Not the average zombie story, John Ajvide Lindqvist has taken the time to think about the emotional aspects of zombies actually being loved ones. Electrical appliances won’t turn off, everyone has headaches and the recently dead are starting to come back to life. Stockholm is in the grip of a heatwave and strange things are happening. ![]() ![]() ![]() This book is an earlier work by Patrick Ness, an amazing writer who has won multiple awards including the Carnegie Prize for Children’s Literature.

Even though it is usually said that Dune is a series of six novels, for me at least, it is more like a three-book original saga and a three-book sequel. This is the story of Paul Atreides and the planet Arrakis, where the priceless spice named mélange, sometimes just called “the spice,” is grown. So, in my opinion, the best Dune reading order is to read first the original series. ![]() ![]() Some say it is best to read them in chronological order, meanwhile others think it is better to read them in published order… if you ask me, in this case, I think you should start reading this saga by the one book that made Dune series to be known as one of the best science fiction novels ever, that is, starting by the first book published: Dune. What is the proper reading order for Dune? extended guideĪs it happens with other long series, there is a bit of controversy regarding the proper order to read this series.
