The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and the Undead

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and the Undead 

by Don Borchert

Ripped from the undead hands of Mark Twain comes Borchert's version of the classic tale of a young boy and his adventures. Instead of whitewashing fences, Tom is sharpening the ends to harm any Zums. Tom is still going after treasures and being a brat, but with more gore and blood and tons of undead.

Basically a word for word account of the original classic tale but instead a life where Zums (zombies) roam around and Tom wants to become a Zum hunter and Injun Joe* is more than just dead, but undead.

And this took my forever to read only because I got bored with it and the lack of zombies to entice me to read on. Overall I did enjoy reading about the boyhood of Tom, but will refrain from recommending this to anyone else, so don't bother finding out how bad this was. I am saved you from this torment.
