Description

When you have to kill the same terrorist twice in one week there's either something wrong with your world or something wrong with your skills... and there's nothing wrong with Joe Ledger's skills.  And that's both a good, and a bad thing.  It's good because he's a Baltimore detective that has just been secretly recruited by the government to lead a new taskforce created to deal with the problems that Homeland Security can't handle. This rapid response group is called the Department of Military Sciences or the DMS for short. It's bad because his first mission is to help stop a group of terrorists from releasing a dreadful bio-weapon that can turn ordinary people into zombies. The fate of the world hangs in the balance....

  • Joe Ledger: Most Bad*** Character ever

    Sure there are stronger, smarter, and more technologically advanced characters out there, but few to none bring the raw brutality and expert finesse that Ledger has, coupled with his otherwise very human psyche. It's only fitting that he and the DMS should take on the most horrific evil masterminds out there in my favorite series! I'd give the series a 4.5 because there are a lot of grammar errors that shouldn't be there, but Apple won't let me, and they don't retract from the novels overall.

  • Amazing

  • Horrendous

    Great story idea,horrible execution. Terrible writing, zero character development and a lot of the action was like describing a first person shooter video game that I ended up skipping over. Worst 9.99 I ever spent on a book.

  • Cheesy and predictable.

    Reads like a rediculously cheesy action novel written for a 16 year old. Plot is very predicable. Steals all of the prototypical spy novel elements. Hot, British major for the main character to fall in love with, check. Quirky, affable scientist to assist the main character, check. A ragtag team made up of a variety of former special forces types, check. Probably the most rediculously aspect of this novel is the fact that the main character, a detective with Baltimore police department apparently happens to be the most lethal combination of martial artist and super soldier that he easily bests the typical assortment of special forces veterans.

  • Not great

    Solid premise, lots of action, and zombies. If you're into horror give it a try. If you want to read something intellectually stimulating read something else.

  • Zombie twist
