Review: Personally, I Liked the 1st in the Series Better....
Rating: 4 out of 5

Rated "Mountain Man" 4 1/2* and this a flat 4*.  Not that there was anything inherently wrong with "Safari".1.) The aftermath of the beat-down put on Gus and the assault on the compound was addressed2.) The mystery of the missing dead zombies was resolved3.) Isolation and loneliness start to take their collective toll on Gus by way of conversations with inanimate objects and offensive kill campaigns against the local zombie populationSometimes it is best not to over-analyze.  I realize that the Mr. Blackmore is first and foremost a fantasy/horror Novelist.  As much as I might like more attention paid to the aspects involving TEOTWAWKI/SHTF, it has never been represented as being the primary focus for either offering in the series.For example:In lieu of going on the offensive and building up a Zombie body count, why didn't Gus simply venture (AKA explore) to the other side of the mountain, so that what was uncovered didn't take an injury in the last 10-pagesI have a sneaking suspicion that with additional interaction in the next offering, that I will like that one better.
