Publisher's Summary

Start intercept: Sporadic reports indicate chaos and violence spreading through U.S. cities. An unknown evil is sweeping the planet. The dead are rising to claim the Earth as the new dominant species in the food chain. Intercept complete.

In your hands is the handwritten journal depicting one man's struggle for survival. Trapped in the midst of global disaster, he must make decisions; choices that ultimately mean life, or the eternal curse to walk as one of them. Enter, if you will, into the world of the undead.

What the critics say

"There is zombie fiction and then there is crawl-out-of-the-grave-and-drag-you-to-hell zombie fiction. Day by Day Armageddon is hands down the best zombie book I have ever read. Dawn of the Dead meets 28 Days Later doesn't even come close to describing how fantastic this thriller is. It is so real, so terrifying, and so well written that I slept with not one, but two loaded Glocks under my pillow for weeks afterwards. J. L. Bourne is the new king of hardcore zombie action!" (Brad Thor, New York Times #1 best-selling author)

Pumped Full of Action and Adrenaline

I have read the first 3 books of the Day by day series and I thought they were fantastic, but decided to come back and listen to them again. I have to say the narration style really helped you feel immersed in a desolate world filled with flesh craving monsters, where all hope for humanity feels lost. I just could not stop listening!

With that being said, this is a great listen for those who want non stop suspense and action, and really feel as if they were part of the zombie apocalypse!

Very interesting and absorbing but...

I was captivated the entire time I read it to the end. There was no ending. I felt cheated.

A laborious journal in how to write uninteresting fiction

Oh man where to begin. The entire book is set in the perspective of a young military mans journaling through the zombie apocolypse. Day by day, number by number account of what he did and how he got through the struggle.
Written in the most uninteresting way you could think of and riddled with grammatical errors and plot holes. So many things don’t make sense and it just really lacks any humanity and art in the writing.
Makes me think the author loved the two renegade soldiers from dawn of the dead so much he wrote a book just about them.
Boring as hell cannot recommend.

wtf is the ending?! why end it so abruptly!

so I absolutely LOVED mostnof this book. but the abrupt ending COMPLETELY RUINED IT! the story itself was fantastic! great moments and well written. but litterly the LAST 1 minute of the story completely ruined it! no closure. nothing just suddenly ends with nothing. I thiught my audio messed up and cut out and stopped playing. that one 1 minute completely ruined the completion of this book and my enjoyment

The main character is boring

The protagonist is very dislikable AND boring somehow. The moment that made me decide to return it was when the main character was musing about how well the "eskimo" were fairing. Like it's the 1800s.

Read Dead By Night or World War Z instead.

GOLD STAR!

This novel and subsequent audio book is written with the edge of an author that knows his craft. it is riveting accurately told and realistically portrayal of realistic situations and their effects from someone that has actually handled guns. I love this reader Jay Snyder too. He fits the character of the protagonist. Well done!
