About the Book:
The first book of Day by Day Armageddon took us deep into the mind of a military officer and survivor as he made a New Year's resolution to start keeping a journal. The man kept his resolution and brought to us the fall of humanity, day by day. We see the man transition from the life that you and I live to the prospect of fighting for his very survival against the overwhelming hordes of the dead. We see him bleed, we see him make mistakes, we witness him evolve. The highly anticipated sequel to the bestselling underground cult classic, Day by Day Armageddon begins where the first novel left off.
BEGIN INTERCEPT
Armies of undead have risen up across the U.S. and around the globe;there is no safe haven from the diseased corpses hungering for human flesh. But in the heat of a Texas wasteland, a small band of survivors attempt to counter the millions closing in around them.
INTERCEPT COMPLETE
Day by day, the handwritten journal entries of one man caught in a worldwide cataclysm capture the desperation--and the will to survive--as he joins forces with a handful of refugees to battle soulless enemies both human and inhuman from inside an abandoned strategic missile facility.
But in the world of the undead, is mere survival enough?

Mmm...zombies...sounds interesting! Hadn't seen anything mentioned about these books before. Thanks for doing a promo spot for them.
Loved the first book.
Overall, loved the second book.
Definitely did NOT like the ending. We opened up a story line of some kind of last ditch mission to China and there was some sort of alien infestation, but the mysterious zone 6, resolution 6, Hell I can't even remember their names 6, was barely resolved. You call yourself a zombie killer? Track their asses down and kill them. LOL
Overall, your usual methodical top shelf stuff. I LOVED a zombie that was still animate in a 25000 year old space suit, but it just doesn't work in the last ten minutes of the story. Your proven strength is meticulously working your way through the story and dealing with the horror. Now you have to go and lay down the guantlet. Bring it on baby.
