About this listen

One Tier-1 Naval Special Warfare Operator, trained at the highest levels of any military, with 20-plus years of operational experience. One ex-cop civilian survivalist, who lived through two years of post-apocalyptic hell, unlike seven billion of her fellow humans. And an entire continent heaving with 400 million dead guys.

To save the lives of his children, and rejoin Alpha team and the fight to save humanity, Homer will have to journey across a thousand miles of undead North America with Sarah Cameron, battling heavily armed bands of marauders who shoot first and ask questions never, and ultimately face down the remains of the world's last surviving SEAL team - now led by a malevolent and piratical monster.

Welcome to the Zulu Alpha

Desolation. Resolve. Rebirth. Odyssey.

This novel follows the journey of Navy Seal Homer and survivalist Sarah Cameron from the woods of Michigan to Vermont - in search of Homer's lost family. Homer *has to* check to see if they're alive.. though the Zulu Alpha has most likely killed them. Chronologically, this book follows the ending of 'Three Parts Dead', as the Alpha team flees with a vaccine scientist to the extraction point. Homer and Sarah head in the other direction. Nghtmarish scenarios (Zombies, marauders) pepper this journey across post-apocalyptic America. The writing is quite good - descriptive and immersive, with some legitimate character development - and there are genuine philosophical discussions between intelligent, empathetic characters. Still this novel is unnecessarily tech-heavy and overloaded with jargon and acronyms. The topic is also necessarily immature (this is a zombie novel, after all). The dystopian society of rogue military specialists in a 'Road Warrior' mould is ridiculously shallow, for example - straining credulity. But this tale ends up quite enjoyable if you can set logic aside. It ends up presenting a far better mixture of action and narrative than other books in the series.

RC Bray is more in his element in this one, too - no annoying accents to worry about. He somehow lends this hilariously cartoonish story gravitas. Bray's performance is unparalleled.

This novel - intended as a standalone - succeeds. Knowing the background, setting, and characters, however, helps to set the table for this smorgasbord. Read the first three books first to best enjoy this exemplary Zombie fiction. 9 stars out of 10.

epic tale

Just too many stretches in believability of how these SEALS would act. And swearing secrecy and giving up the opportunity for a weapon like that? If this series had a weak spot it’s here.

This tangent put a lot of plot holes in main arc
