Review: This is "World War Z" masquerading as a "Perfect Storm"
Rating: 3 out of 5

The book was pretty well written, the characters were fairly good, and I enjoyed most of the story. But aside from some wind, rain and boarding up of windows, there wasn't much beyond the cover art about an epic storm, which is what I thought would be the focal point of the story.This is the 1st book in a series, and I got it free, which I appreciate. But after downloading and reading the 2nd & 3rd books, I realized this was more a zombie book than a storm chaser thriller. Bummer! That wasn't clear to me, at least not from the "Look Inside."The other comment I have is that each book was fairly short, as if the author wrote one book then chopped it into segments rather than producing one complete novel after another. And I think there are more segments out there or coming or something...? I wish authors would put the darn series numbers in their book titles so it would be easier to follow. I usually don't read these because they often differ in quality from 1 installment to the next, or are not complete, and the reader has to wait for the next one to be written to finish the story. I like to read the whole enchilada in one big, greasy book, even if I pay a bit more!
