I'm not even remotely interested in zombie stories and never have been. However, the thought of a non-saga-related Star Wars novel is certainly interesting. The synopsis' mention of a derelict destroyer floating unmanned and being used to scavenge parts from is a very cool idea. The zombie part wrecks it for me though.

I only have four novels I read - all of which are non-saga-related. Splinter Of The Mind's Eye gets a pass because it was written before there was a saga, so it's a much better story. It's not locked into the tiny Lucas world. I'll increase my novel selection to what is most likely its final number of seven, when I get the Lando novels by Neil Smith.

My point; While the zombie angle isn't my thing, it's nice to see a story outside of the tired Empire\Sith Lords\Dark Side\Jedi Knights\Boba Fett universe. The franchise has gone to that well far too often.
