The highest praise I have ever given an author

I go through one or two books a day so when I tell you this gentleman is one of my new favorite authors that means something. I love the different slant on the zombie concept and he managed to make the teenage characters interesting to a woman who has children a decade older than them. Excellent crossover writing ability as many of the young people in my neighborhood suggested his books to me. As the widow of a sniper and the mother of three veterans I was especially pleased with the way he handled the military and LEO involvement. So many authors make the mistake of making their personalities either flat and cartoonlike or so incredibly flawed they are more likely to belong in a mental ward than in public service. Not here, realistic people with believable reactions. I suspect even our resident bad guy is just caught in the flow of events and doing his best to do what he thinks he has to do. Best of all the hero and his friends showed how commonsense, basic skills and using one’s own specific talents are the ultimate secret weapon.

Best New voice in the zombie genre

One of the most original takes on the zombie apocalypse I have read yet. I love zombie fiction, but I get tired of the Army Ranger prepped scenario or the drunken young adults caught up in surviving at all costs. I am tired of the assumption that everyone would descend into murdering, raping monsters within a short amount of time. I am also tired of gratuitous gore that lends nothing to the storyline. Since the Sirens is a breath of fresh air. The writing is good, the characters are developed and the pacing is good. Best of all, this book could be read by zombie-loving youngsters. I am a fan, and I am looking forward to book 2.

I loved this story! Exciting action with unpredictable outcomes, well developed characters and a charming plot. So refreshing to share moments with these characters without foul language and endless discussion of firearms.
