Review: Leaving Fortress Britain
Rating: 4 out of 5

Messrs. James and Fuchs created an entertaining zombie world in which Britain stands alone as an island sanctuary against a world overtaken by a zombie plague.  Elite special forces including Americans are sent into danger on missions to retrieve bits of research from labs on the continent, but the most promising lead points to Chicago, in the middle of a dark and silent USA.  The only remaining aircraft carrier is sent with the special forces Alpha team to pursue it.  And so ends book one and begins book two.  It was good stuff, and "Mogadishu of the Dead" is just as good, and in fact was hard to put down.  The action is tense and, apart from the zombies, original.The book confines itself to two locations:  Chicago with Alpha team, and the aircraft carrier.  Fortress Britain is out of the picture.  All in all, an outstanding continuation of the series!
