I thoroughly enjoyed "The Dead Walk The Earth" and was hooked right from the very beginning.  Mr. Duffy tells the story of an elite military squad during the onset of the Zombie Apocalypse.  The English Government sends this team on the most top secret and clandestine missions around the world.  The opening chapter places the squad in the Middle East - their mission is to assassinate a high ranking terrorist leader, currently hiding in a  remote farmhouse out in the desolate countryside.  Snipers have the house covered from three sides, the team hopes their intel is correct and that the target will show at daybreak.On their way to the pick-up zone, the squad comes upon a destroyed village, bodies of slaughtered men, women and children litter the surrounding area.  Reckoning that terrorists were responsible, the eight men continue toward their destination.  En route, they see another village in the distance with people moving about, however, something is just not right; their movements, stiff and awkward, almost mechanical.  The Blackhawk arrives before the team can investigate, so it is noted and reported to the higher ups during their debriefing.  Thus begins the government cover-up and the global zombie apocalypse.The team continues in their missions and it isn't long before they are attacked by their first zombie horde.  They haven't learned about head shots yet so the learning curve was intense and they are on the verge of being overrun. One team member is injured and an emergency evacuation is requested.  Once back at headquarters, they find themselves captive and in quarantine.  Nobody is telling them anything and they don't know why they are imprisoned!  The team characters are well defined and likable.  When they are finally released, the team is dispatched to northern England on a rescue mission, only to find themselves without support and on their own.Meanwhile, the world goes to hell in a handbasket and everyone is fighting for their lives.  Great job Mr. Duffy, looking forward to reading more of your adventures.  Highly recommended!John Podlaski, authorCherries - A Vietnam War Novel
