A pretty entertaining spin on the zombie genre. A bit "ammo sexual" at times, but altogether a goid read. ( )

A familiar theme: family fighting zombies and a world gone bad. First book drags on a bit. Reads like a first book in a series. Family had connections so were prepared for the day they got the call: run and hide. Their plan involved a sailboat on the ocean to avoid the dangers. It grows into a small fleet as they begin the process of rescuing who they can from other vessels and clearing out the zombies. Lot of clearing in book 1. Book kept my interest though and I like the characters. I will give book 2 a try. ( )

John Ringo tackles the Zombie Apocalypse! That means lots of guns, lots of combat, lots of action with smart, clear-thinking protagonists. With a slight edge in knowledge, Ramboesque ex-soldier Steve Smith gets his wife and Valkyrian daughters out to sea in a boat. Smith starts to link up with other boats and becomes leader of an effort to build his fleet and eventually reclaim the land for the few survivors of the zombie plague. It has scope, is well-written, exciting, and just a great, fun read. ( )

If you've always wondered what would happen if you take to the sea during a zombie apocalypse, this is the book for you. It's also refreshing to read a story about a family that is prepared and actually has a plan for a disaster, instead of fumbling around ( )

a fun read! i will definitely move on to the rest of the series eventually. ( )
