You know, I must have been comotose when that chapter excerpt got posted because I missed it the first time around, and I have to say it: LKH likes boobs way, way, way too much. Also, I thought the punctuation in the BOOKS was bad. It looks like she figured out where the periods and commas went by shoving them all into a shotgun and pointing it at the screen.
If LKH were writing music she'd be Flo Rida. AKA a "hook artist". She can do that first couple pages relatively well enough to get you reading, and by the time you realize the plot will go NOWHERE, you're a hundred pages in and your dedication to reading forces you to continue.
So basically, yep. That's going to be it. Only we will probably open with something that, if it were another book attached to another character with another writer behind it, would be thoroughly awesome. There will be at least one "We should do something. Should we do something? We should DO something" conversation involving Friendcop at the 1/3 mark, followed immediately by an experiance pissing contest with Foecop and an equally irritating "I'm not giving up my guns" convo involving Preternatural Person about five pages later.
Whatever is doing the zombies will be awesome, and this will make everyone cry because it will get a plot dump intro and a hand-wave exit, and nothing else will happen at all. Or else it'll be a sign that the next Big Bad has risen.
