The Walking Dead: The Fall of the Governor: Part One Description
The third book in Robert Kirkman's New York Times bestselling series: The Walking Dead: The Fall of the Governor – Part One!
The Walking Dead original novel series, set in the universe of Robert Kirkman's iconic comic book, continues with The Fall of the Governor – Part One. From co-authors Kirkman, creator of the Eisner Award-winning comic as well as executive producer of AMC's blockbuster TV series, and Jay Bonansinga, Stoker Award-finalist and internationally acclaimed author, comes the gripping third novel in this richly woven, page-turning literary saga, which began with The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor.
In Rise of the Governor, uber-villain Philip Blake journeyed from his humble beginnings directly into the dark heart of the zombie apocalypse, and became the self-proclaimed leader of a small town called Woodbury. In The Road to Woodbury, an innocent traveler named Lilly Caul wound up in the terrifying thrall of Phillip Blake’s twisted, violent dictatorship within Woodbury’s ever tightening barricades.
And now, in The Fall of the Governor – Part One, the Governor’s descent into madness finally erupts in a tour de force of action and horror. Beloved characters from the comic book, including Rick, Michonne and Glenn, finally make their entrance onto this nightmarish stage, and fans of The Walking Dead will see these characters in a whole new light. Simmering grudges boil over into unthinkable confrontations, battle lines are drawn, and unexpected twists seal the fates of the innocent and guilty alike.

I read the first two books in this series and bought this one yesterday. I feel like the quality of the writing has gone down--too much description that was kind of irrelevant and almost felt like padding. Now I know why--this really does feel like the first half of a series, and it wasn't advertised as such. I feel very ripped off and may very well demand Part Two for free. Save your cash until Amazon fixes this. The sucky thing is that I'd been waiting for months to see how the trilogy would end, now I have to wait more.
Come on, with so many stories in the Walking Dead universe, I'd buy these books until they stopped writing them. But this? Just a bait and switch.

I really liked the writing in this book. It fulfills the promise of the other books and adds a lot for fans of the comic series. It is not George R R Martin or Orson Scott Card, but the writing is decent. I would've given it more stars but for the trick played on customers. It stinks that they stuck it to fans by splitting up the book and waiting until a week (after a large number of pre-orders) before its release before adding this "Part One" nonsense. Shame on you, Thomas Dunne Books, St Martin's Press, Kirkman and Bonsinga. You punished your fans for being devoted to you.
