Where Zombies Walk (Book 1 Kendra's Journey)

Where Zombies Walk (Book 1 Kendra's Journey)

Life comes hard and fast for Kendra and her family in a dystopian world that is struggling to recover from a nuclear war and is now under the rule of an alien government. Unaware of the impending alien invasion, a group of scientists -which included Kendra's parents- were ordered to create a zombie virus and set it loose on Russia. The intention was to subdue Russia and then release the cure, but the alien attack took them unawares and the scientists and their cure disappeared, leaving the virus to run rampant. Having been inoculated against the virus, Kendra's aunt is one of these scientists who has kept her identity a secret for fear of being made a slave to the alien government. When a village that is connected to the people who moved underground for survival kidnaps Kendra in hopes that they can harvest any memories of her parents discussing the cure while she was a mere infant with the use of an experimental machine, her aunt must decide about coming forth with her identity. In the meantime, along with dealing with the ever-rising population of zombies, the alien regime -which considers humans a delicacy for their dinner table – sets out to correct and purify the human race from those who were mutated in some way by the nuclear explosions. Rex is one of those humans. He is also Kendra’s lover. “Where Zombies Walk” is Book One of Kendra’s Journey in a world that offers steamy romance, nail biting peril, and thrills, and a paradise-like sanctuary within its core. All she has to do is make her way there.

What are the best Dean R Koontz books to start with?

I got into Koontz through my dad's old paperbacks, and the gateway drug for me was definitely 'Watchers'. It's got that classic Koontz formula—a brilliant dog, a genetically engineered super-being on the loose, and an ordinary guy caught in the middle. The pacing is relentless, and the bond between the man and the dog gives it a heart a lot of his other books lack. It's thrilling without being overly bleak.

From there, I'd jump to 'Lightning'. That one blends historical fiction with time-travel suspense in a way that feels unique for him. The central relationship drives the whole story, and it has a satisfying, almost hopeful arc that a lot of 80s horror-thrillers miss. 'Intensity' is another solid pick if you want pure, unadulterated adrenaline; it’s basically one long chase scene, but it’s executed so well you can't put it down. Avoid the doorstopper epics like 'The Face' or 'From the Corner of His Eye' for now—they can get a bit convoluted for a newcomer.

Which Dean Koontz book should I read first as a new fan?

I have a soft spot for 'Winter Moon'. It's actually two novellas in one book, 'Strange Highways' and the title story. 'Winter Moon' is a creepy, isolated-farmhouse tale with an alien biological threat. It's claustrophobic and weird in the best way. Starting with a collection/novella combo like this gives you two distinct flavors of Koontz in one volume. You get the shorter, punchier 'Strange Highways' and the slower-building, atmospheric dread of 'Winter Moon'. It's a economical way to sample his range.

For a different angle, try 'The Husband'. It’s a contemporary thriller with no supernatural elements, just an ordinary man thrown into an impossible situation. The premise is simple and terrifying: a man is told his wife will be killed unless he pays an impossible ransom. It’s a masterclass in escalating tension and exploring what an average person is capable of under extreme duress. It’s lean, mean, and proves Koontz can write a gripping story without any speculative fiction hooks.
