Publisher's summary

If it doesn't kill you, someone infected with it will. Bleeders: A Rising Storm continues the saga of Brody Tate where The Red Death left off. Both he and his trusty companion Jeremiah have survived the Red Flu, yet they aren't the same people they were before the infection. Their sleep is plagued with nightmares, and their waking hours prone to violent outbursts of almost inhuman levels. After having their escape from New York City go south, the two men are on their own again, making their way back toward the food bank where they'd once found safe haven. On the way they stop to rescue a few survivors, who decide to join their party- even if not all of them trust two men with red eyes and bad tempers. Together they'll try once again to flee a city gone to Hell. But the dangers they find don't just come from the Bleeders. Between random firefights, the looming plans of the military, and increasing trouble from a new kind of cult, they'll have to ask themselves what's worse: the infected, or the survivors?

The second half of book 1

The story picks up where the first one left off and to me together it feels more like a complete story. Not to say the story ends because it is clearly left open for the story to continue in book 3. You do get used to the AI voice after a while and because the book is free I will not complain. I would much rather get a book like this for free/with membership then use a credit or pay a few bucks.

With that said the story is okay. The writing is pretty good in my opinion even if slowed by the robot voice at times. My biggest issue is with the direction and the counterdictions or oddities within the story. I am taken back by some of the suicidal decisions by background characters and odd choices main characters have which counter already established behavior. The ending was a bit disappointing which goes towards the odd story direction I was referring to earlier as well. There are worse zombie books out there, and may be worth listening to between credits if you enjoy the genre.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
