In the very exiting zombie apocalypse book The Walking Dead by Robert Kirkman. It's all about a Kentucky cop called Rick Grimes. Rick gets shot and goes into a coma. When he wakes up he finds himself in the zombie apocalypse. He fights to find his wife and son and fights to survive this newly zombie infested world. There are lots of character changes. I personally think that when Carl, Rick's son kills Shane to protect Rick will change him and Rick forever.
Carl and Rick will change because of Shane's death. They will because right after Carl shoots Shane Carl says that shooting a real living person is different and harder than shooting a zombie. I feel this means that now things have changed. Shane was Rick's best friend. I think Shane's death signifies that they are now in danger at all times, and now they have to leave the world they once new for a world were no can be trusted and a world were everything is legal.
In conclusion Shane's death is going to be an impact on Carl and Rick.
