It is a short story about a survivors in post apocalyptic south Texas. The main character John Randell is kidnapped by 5 commandos while out on a foraging party. He comes to find out that camp yea has been sent to is ran by all women. I love the idea that this camp is run by women has all of the amenities, while the men's camps are living like cave people. The women essentially rape men to get pregnant, they really have no other need for them. However, the upper command has no idea that a rebellion is brewing. This was a surprisingly good novel, there was an actual story line and not just sex scenes. It was interesting to have the women be the aggressors, as in most romance novels, rape isn't really rape which I think is horrendously misleading, but I don't have a soap box about it either. I was surprised that when I got to the end I felt it was too short of a story and I wanted to read more and find out what happens with the rebellion. Peters has good writing, very easy flow.

The Rooster was a quick, enjoyable read. It’s part zombie story and part erotica, though it’s not so heavy in either.

The premise is interesting. A man is a prison/sex slave for a compound of women who’ve banded together to survived in the world after a zombie apocalypse. It’s a good backdrop for a character to get into a situation like this. The militant group of women hold him basically with the threat that if he doesn’t comply, he’ll be thrown back into the zombie infested world he came from.

As I said, this story wasn’t too heavy on certain aspects. Even though it’s short (roughly 16k words), I think it could have been bulked up with some more story development and had less glossed over as the story moved forward in time. It also seems to be the first in a series, so I know not everything will be built up in the first installment. I just felt that it could have used some more to link it into another story than the zombies evolving (hinted at in the description). Not much time was spent in The Rooster on this, but I think it’s what’ll be explored more in whatever comes next.

Overall a good story, some room to get better in the next story and hopefully expand into a more developed story as a whole. I’ll be keeping an eye out for that from Peters.
