I've always enjoyed stories with a military slant, and this book doesn't disappoint. Finally, Joe is spot-on with his military jargon and scenes.
This was a nice change, and I think guys can relate to the characters as easily as I did. So many zombie books focus on badass military guys. That Joe used female leads (both good and evil) made me enjoy it all the more. Without giving spoilers, there's enough of a action-thriller to keep me wondering what's going to happen next. To me, it feels like it could be a prequel to Joe's Dead World series, and I loved it. What you get is a terrifying, action-packed addition to the horror genre from the Bram Stoker Award®-winning author of the Dead World series. Add in tough-as-nails secret service agents up against a bloodthirsty drug cartel. Imagine what it would be like to be trapped on a cruise ship, surrounded by the insatiably hungry undead.
I was lucky enough to receive an early copy (booyeah!) to do a review for Target Audience Magazine.
