The Road to Woodbury - Rise of the Govenor Sequel

[Irish Daigle]

Started this one a few days ago. I'm generally a novel kinda guy versus comics, so when I found out Kirkman was working with a novelist to put Walking Dead into the purely imaginative world of the long-form written word I was nothing but excited.

What perhaps surprises me most about the Walking Dead novels (Rise of the Governor and now Road to Woodbury) is that I find the dialogue to be more natural. The comics have always bugged me because the way people talked is always just a little off.

Getting the flashback of the Governor's origin was a treat, and now getting to read all about Lilly and her backstory will hopefully prove just as much a treat.
