Strange things are happening in Los Angeles: a homeless man attacks a waitress returning home from the late shift; the residents of a West LA apartment complex are awoken in the middle of the night to discover a group of strange people with white eyes and teeth like razors attacking a man in the courtyard. The media is blaming the violence on terrorists. The actual cause is far more insidious.

Extended description

Strange things are happening in Los Angeles: a vintage guitar shop owner finds a strange woman lingering near his shop as he closes up for the night; a homeless man attacks a waitress returning home from the late shift; the residents of a West Los Angeles apartment complex are awoken in the middle of the night to discover a group of strange people attacking a man in the building’s courtyard. In each instance the attackers move slowly and unsteadily, with eyes that are milky white and teeth like razors. Similar events are happening all over the city. Videos of the attacks have begun to filter onto the internet. The media is blaming the outbreak of violence on terrorists. The actual cause is far more insidious.

The only hope to stopping the outbreak can be found at the headquarters of Nardock International, a drug research company secretly testing a new gene therapy, Anti-Sentient 6, on human subjects. Inside the headquarters’ walls, a test subject has begun to metamorphosize into a creature, devoid of humanity. The fate of the City of Angels, and perhaps mankind, depends on what happens within the next few hours.

Review by: Stephanie Mayor on May 21, 2012 :
Anti Sentient is not just another zombie story.  It is a compelling tale of characters, their stories and their lives that unfold all in the midst of The City of Angels under attack.  The author created the characters that seem like people you know, which draws you even further into the story.   
Transformations told from the characters' perspective was a very nice touch.   Also, the cause of the zombies coming into existence is actually very alarming because with everything going in the pharma big business FDA murkiness of today, it's not impossible.  Finally, the richness of detail in the gruesome zombie depictions really made me shudder.  Before I give too much away, it is a fun read and I give it two thumbs up.
