Since I am a big zombie fanatic, I have to say this book didn't disappoint. Without giving much away, I say this book deserves 4 stars. I recommend this book to anyone who loves zombies and romances.

Kids might actually LIVE through the zombie apocalipse if this happens!!!

AWESOME! I am a big fan of the television drama series ‘The Walking Dead.’ The Enemy – book 1 in ‘The Enemy Series’ by Charlie Higson - amazing! I cannot wait to read more in the series. In ‘The Enemy,’ you will read about how young children struggle to survive in a World Gone Mad! For a taste of what you will read, Google < the-enemy.co.uk > and open ‘The Enemy/The Dead – Trailer – You Tube.’ Also see on You Tube - The Enemy by Charlie Higson – ZOMBIES. Doctor-at-Bass! T. A.

Intense, grotesque and un-put-downable. This book was a perfect cross between the GONE series by Michael Grant and The Walking Dead. The characters were interesting and their struggles ever so real. I highly recommend this book. :D

Wait, why does the description say that only children under 14 remain alive... But in The Dead, kids under 16 are the alive... WTH....

I thought The Enemy was just going to be another walking dead in the park experience. Not. It caught me right from the beginning and kept me right to the end. Yes, there is violence, gore, and a bit of Lord of the Flies but amongst all that there are brave, resilient kids that are trying to make the world right armed with only a strong urge to live and hope. I can't wait to read the next one. This would make a great TV series.

OMG BEST BOOK EVER!!! I especially liked the eerieness of the scene where Deak dies (I'm kind of a spioler, I know). The story could have been better and it could have used more action, but this an amazing read. READ IT!!!!!

THis book is not for the tender-hearted or the queasy type. Kids die either at the hands of the zombie-like adults or other kids. I felt some of the violence was not necessary and even harmed the overall enjoyment of the book.
