Review: It Seems To Be Tailor Made Just for Me. . . .
Rating: 5 out of 5

I find it somewhat awkward to admit that as a Zomibe junkie, I had not read anything by Glynn James.  However, as a hi-tech military action junkie, I have read a few books by of Michael S. Fuchs.  My favorite of his so far is:D-Boys.  The follow up to D-Boys is due out any day now.When I saw this book being offered for FREE I jumped at it.  It combined two of my favor storylines: Zombies and military action thrillers.  It seems as if it was written JUST for me.  Arisen, Book One, fits right along withThe Gathering Dead (A Zombie Apocalypse Novel)by Stephen Knight and withTooth And Nailby Craig DiLouie.  And I consider these two books as being among the very best of the zombie/military thrillers books I have read.What is there not to like? Flesh eating zombies, and several different kinds to boot!  They are changing with the times, some now can now run and jump!  Not all, but more than a few.  And who stands for mankind? Some of the best, most elite special forces operators from the U.S. and Britain.  Even if Tom ClancyRainbow Six (Jack Ryan)and Tim CurranResurrection:Zombie Epichad decided to get together and write a zombie/military action thriller, it could not be better written than Arisen, Book One-Fortress Britain.The combination of Fuchs and James is a winner for sure.  The authors draw you into this crazy world of zombies.  We feel how some of the operators feel about fighting while all the time thinking about their families.  We get to see how the soldiers react to each other and deal with the world at large.  This is a set-up book for sure, but who cares?  I was already hooked and about half-way thru I went ahead and ordered the 2nd book in this series:Arisen, Book Two - Mogadishu of the Deadfor $2.99.  A 3rd book is due out in Jan, 2013.  Count me in for all 3, and more.As I mention in several of my reviews, check out the link to See All My Reviews and see how many and the types of books I have reviewed on Amazon.  This way you can see where I am coming from when I lay out the praise for this thriller (I am not an author, and while I picked this book up for free, it was via the Amazon freebies and not an advanced copy).
