Publisher's Summary

From best-selling author Peter Meredith 

The Apocalypse Crusade - The First Three Days 

The world is suddenly thrown into chaos as a research project is sabotaged and the dead come alive to feast on the living - it seems like an old story, doesn’t it? Or perhaps you’ve heard this one: cities worldwide are overrun by a plague of man-eating monsters that seem to come out of nowhere while small bands of heroes fight for their lives! 

Yes, we’ve all listened to that book. 

The Apocalypse Crusade is not that book. You are not suddenly thrust into a world gone mad. Instead, you get front-row seats to how the sh-t went down. In real time you are witness to the agony and the horror…and the terrible stupidity that made it all possible. 

This book puts you in the thick of the action. You are the stockbroker who throws a brick through a convenience store window and surges in with the crowd to loot what he can before it’s too late and the food runs out. And you are the 30-year-old housewife who picks up that same brick an hour later and uses it to crack open the skull of a stranger because she has two children to feed. His arms are full and hers are empty - survival is just that simple sometimes. 

You are the ill-prepared family man who foolishly believes the authorities when they say the situation is contained. The line at the gas station is three miles long, wrapping around block after block and so, in a state of denial you go home and play a game of monopoly with the wife and kids as the horde of undead grows and grows all around you. 

And you are the soldier on the line, sweating beneath your helmet and vest. At 10 that morning you were a cocky thing. You were going to kick ass - but that was then. Now, 12 hours later, you’ve retreated four times and you are counting your bullets and eyeing the gas mask sitting on the log next to you. 

You hate the thing. You can’t see worth a damn when it’s on and you sure as hell can’t shoot straight. But to leave it off could mean becoming infected. On the other hand, you know that if you miss just one time you could be eaten alive, screaming and screaming. It happened to Davis and his cries still ring in your ears. 

The mask stays on the log and the headache you’ve had for the last hour really starts to thump and your mouth tastes like ass and your vision is blurry....

Great ending.

I like how the author finished this series off. There was never a time when I knew how it would end. Also the start was amazing once you get past the backstory of each character.

Great narration fun story if you like zombies

As a fan ever since George Romero put out Night of the Living Dead I have been a zombie fan. I was thrilled at the sudden proliferation of zombie books and movies... This is a fun contender for a good read... don't get me wrong none of them are Pride and Prejudice (except Pride Prejudice and Zombies LOL)... But seriously unlike some other readers I didn't find the author was against women or Asian people, certainly he is against politicians but that seems warranted... There are some wonderful strong Asian characters including the main heroine doctor Lee... True the main evil scientists are an anglo woman and an Asian saboteur... still I found the politicians were the true evil characters far more evil than the two aforementioned and the plodding zombies or slightly smarter zombies looking for a good meal... who doesn't get hangry...

The end is nigh

Wow what a wild ride, this story covers the "inevitable" zombie apocalypse we all know is coming, but not from your usual post outbreak world ala those walking dead guys, this story takes place while the outbreak is starting and rises to a crescendo that leaves you in no doubt that the end is upon us. Taking place over just a few days with the initial infected running amok it explores the very realistic outcome of a true zombie plague.

Libs rekt

The story is good, it’s a nice detailed change from the standard generic zombie apocalypse tale, and the performance is fine. However the politics of the writer (anti-Chinese, anti modern feminist and “they don’t have a second amendment and are therefore weak”) revealed every now and then makes it extremely off putting and some of the main characters laughably unconvincing. But still, at least the main character isn’t an ex-marine or ex-navy seal or whatever.
