MY REVIEW
Warning: Adult Zombie Erotica. LOL
Wormfood Island by Ken La Salle is an adult horror novel. The sex is not so much erotic, but savage as it feeds on the human bodies of these not-so-happy vacationers. The writing struck me as humorous horror. If there isn’t such a thing, I’m laying claim to the genre.
A beautiful tropical island…not so much.
Flawed characters that end up in a shitload of trouble, very much so.
Kevin Miller had turned into a couch potato, just waiting for death to claim him. Until…
He has everything riding on next week…the trip.
It started with a BITE.
The character chosen to set off the chain of events that will have the others in shock or sent running and screaming to their death, was a bit of a surprise, but when I think about it…perfect.
I love flawed characters and Kevin is a doozy. I sure hope he mans up.
As the story progresses, so does the contagion.
Zombies run wild, with the uninfected unable to believe what they are seeing.
Imagine, if you knew the changes you were going through, what you would become, unable to change the end result.
As an example of the humorous horror, I will share the head of securities comment while watching a woman bite off a man’s penis:
“Don’t you have any sense, you two? Can’t you see people are watching you?”
Wormfood Island is a fun and grisly adventure into Ken La Salle’s twisted mind.
There is tons of running, screaming, shock and awe, and blood and guts a plenty.
Half the time I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, so I laughed. Sorry, perhaps I am a bit twisted myself. LOL
I received Wormfood Island by Ken La Salle in return for an honest and unbiased review and I can hardly wait to see what he comes up with next.

GOODREADS BLURB
Wormfood Island is the story of a family on the verge of collapse. When they win a trip to a hedonism resort out of the country, Kevin Miller hopes this is the chance they need to save their marriage. But instead, they find themselves quickly facing a quest for survival against an infestation of parasitic worms that cause the infected to gain monstrous sexual appetites…which quickly turns to an appetite for living flesh.
ABOUT KEN LA SALLE (from his website)
“Novelist and Playwright, Ken La Salle grew up in Santa Ana, California and has remained in the surrounding area his entire life. He was raised with strong, blue collar roots, which have given him a progressive and environmentalist view. As a result, you’ll find many of his stories touching those areas both geographically and philosophically. He’s also very funny.”

Sounds like a fun one, Sherry. I like a little humor with my bloodfest. LOL I see why the title grabbed and I see trees! LOL
They need the trees to give themselves a “little” privacy. LOL
Wait, what? Zombie sex? While they feed on vacationers?
LOL. Wormfood Island is a must read for Zombie lovers everywhere. 🙂
Hehe… this sounds like an amusing read Sherry! The title even made me smile!
Ken La Salle is very good with his titles and I am really looking forward to reading more of his work.
Jeeze, that’s just creepy.
It gets even creepier, but I LOVE it!
OMG..that quote you shared. This sounds like an interesting read, and I am sure laughter will ensue.
Definitely different than any zombie book I have read and, YES, there will be laughter. LOL
Gah! So, if I am turning into a zombie I’m going to have to do the horizontal mambo with a zombie? Do they bathe first? That is not happening, ever. Off with my head, crush my skull, find the fastest way to kill me forever. Geez, now I have to tell my husband I have a headache….
Great post!
