FEED spoiler party!

Okay, folks, I've been asked for it, and here it is: the spoiler party for Feed. Anything goes in the comments on this post only. If you haven't read the book, I ask that you not click. If you have, feel free to jump in, ask questions, discuss, or just yell at me. I'm cool either way.

Game on!

Seanan, I loved it. It's selling really well in my bookstore too...which might be because certain people are answering the question "What have you read lately?" with "Feed! It's awesome!" Just saying.

I have a question for clarification re: Ryman ranch. The horse Rebecca bridled, saddled and loaded her sisters on, it was post-amplification, so it was a zombie horse, right? I'm trying to figure out how her sisters got off of it - it would have to have been killed in some way. And horsies slobber so I'm guessing they had to spend some time at the CDC or equivalent getting decontaminated (plus there's that whole thing of being that close to zombies).

I'm very much a cat and horse person, so you had me thoroughly traumatized and I still love the book. I'm just trying to figure out how I can manage the wait until next May.

Thanks, Melissa

Basically, as boojum said. Rebecca managed to bridle the horse and control the head so that it couldn't bite Jeanne or Amber, and essentially forced it into getting them clear. Rebecca had already been bitten, so she was able to take what would normally have been insane risks, knowing she was already dead.

She saved them. That was all she wanted.
