I like reading these post apocalyptic tails for entertainment and education, I have read all of Franklin Hortons books and enjoyed them so much that I was looking for more like them. I thought these books would be similar, they are not. People kill just to kill, there are no heroes and no real character development, I felt no attachment to any of them. I finished reading the series out of pure desperation for something to happen that changed my mind. It didn’t. If you like blood and guts purely for blood and guts this series is for you. Just not my cup of tea.
