review:

Z-Boyz In The Robot Graveyard is a 2-part novella with a linked story. Both stories are by John Shirley with unsettling art by Daniel Bradford.



In the first story three survivors make it to the robot junkyard in hopes of finding parts to make a sentry for their compound to fend off zombie attacks. When things go wrong, the woman, Keesha, and her now semi-robot brother find themselves trapped in the junkyard. Keesha builds a working robot, but it will never make it back to their home. Then, a mysterious stranger named Curt shows up and adds a grisly twist to the robots that are being built. Can Curt be trusted? What are his ultimate plans?



In the second story, we meet two brothers named Perry and Joe. Perry is creating a macabre piece of performance art in the desert.



There were also a couple extra stories in the collection called Women On War and they were pretty good too.



I've enjoyed all the entries in the Zombies vs. Robots series, and I look forward to reading more of these original takes on zombie fiction.



I was given a review copy of this book by Open Road Integrated Media and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for letting me read this book.
