Good book, teaches you about survival. You can learn a lot of stuff about survival, of course, with a little fantasy mashed into it. Honestly saying, it's kinda scary, but it's a really good book.

My favorite book! Ian spots a majestic buck and runs after it. Kendra and PJ follow too. Suddenly, they are lost in the woods. While trying to survive, Ian, Kendra, and PJ find a wall with a mysterious symbol on it. They climb over it and find themselves near a cabin. Ian, Kendra, and PJ go inside and find a diary. They find out that the diary belonged to Deborah Palmer, a member of the Pine City Dancers who went missing in the woods. After reading the diary, they discover zombies are real and flee the cabin. PJ gets rescued after falling into the pack of zombies by a Warden named O'Dea. After that, Kendra and Ian find a paragraph written backwards by Deborah that said: Follow the marked path Find the web of dreams Reach the witch's lair Burn the wicked totem Destroy her evil power Break down the walls Set us free. Kendra and Ian find O'Dea and burn the dream catcher, but O'Dea yells that they set the zombies free into the world. Kendra, Ian, and PJ manage to defeat the zombies, and peace is restored. Then they become Gravediggers, zombie slayers.
