A great addition to the ever expanding zompoc genre! Brian Parker is a great writer, with a great imagination, lots of military expertise and great character development.
I loved the new (to me) premise of terrorists using an altered virus/bacteria to start a zombie apocalypse. The mixture of terrorists and zombies was unique and Mr. Parker did a great job weaving the two together.
This book follows a couple who are separated when the SHTF. Emory is stuck in Washington DC while her fiancé, Grayson, tries to return to DC from Oklahoma. Before these two get back together, there are lots of zombie encounters, plenty of terrorist activity and a little romance. At times, it was a little difficult to follow where the action was taking place and who was involved, but I attribute that to the fact that I was listening to the book instead of seeing the words on the page. Mr. Parker did indicate where and when each incident occurred, so I don’t blame him for this.
Andrew Wehrlen does a great job in his narration and added a lot to my enjoyment of this book. I love both Mr. Parker and Mr. Wehrlen’s works and this book does not disappoint. I was given the chance to listen to this audiobook through Audiobook Boom! and chose to review it.
