Publisher's summary

Start intercept: Sporadic reports indicate chaos and violence spreading through U.S. cities. An unknown evil is sweeping the planet. The dead are rising to claim the Earth as the new dominant species in the food chain. Intercept complete.

In your hands is the handwritten journal depicting one man's struggle for survival. Trapped in the midst of global disaster, he must make decisions; choices that ultimately mean life, or the eternal curse to walk as one of them. Enter, if you will, into the world of the undead.

Critic reviews

"There is zombie fiction and then there is crawl-out-of-the-grave-and-drag-you-to-hell zombie fiction. Day by Day Armageddon is hands down the best zombie book I have ever read. Dawn of the Dead meets 28 Days Later doesn't even come close to describing how fantastic this thriller is. It is so real, so terrifying, and so well written that I slept with not one, but two loaded Glocks under my pillow for weeks afterwards. J. L. Bourne is the new king of hardcore zombie action!" (Brad Thor, New York Times #1 best-selling author)

Zombies have been a potent cultural force for decades.

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of zombie-themed stories out there. But which ones are the very best? And which zombie audiobooks will have you double-checking the locks and sleeping with a baseball bat next to your bed?

A good Story

Would you consider the audio edition of Day By Day Armageddon to be better than the print version?

The pace and flow make sense. It was a realistic story in that people reacted to a truly apocalyptic event as would be expected.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Day By Day Armageddon?

The most memorable was the attempt of a group of lawless civilians to take over the missle complex for their own use. Break down of society and ever man for himself.

What does Jay Snyder bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Actually nothing; I would be as interested if I read it as hearing it while driving.

best zombie fiction

This book had to be one of the best additions to the zombie genre that has ever been made. Once you pick this book up you can't physically put it down. This book is a must read for anyone who even remotely thinks about zombies.

Youll want to stock up on amunition

One of the best Zombie books I have ever read or listned to. It takes a few minutes of getting use to the journal style but after you do hold on. If your like me your imagination will run wild on the time (sometimes only hours) not accounted for between entries.

This book got me hooked on the genre

Would you consider the audio edition of Day By Day Armageddon to be better than the print version?

I didn't really read these type of books, but I love science fiction and horror but in separate books...
But I decided to branch out and take a chance on a new genre...once I listened to the audio..I am now a big fan. It's a great pairing

Great Post-Apocalyptic Zombie Novel!

I've been on something of a post-apoc kick lately, and I was a bit hesitant to buy this one but the comments from others won and I bought it. I am glad I did! It has a great story with good narration. The only thing I didn't like about this book was the ending. It just...ends. It doesn't wrap anything up, just leaves you hanging like it's the end of a chapter. I guess I'll have to download the next one in order to find out what happens to the characters.

Great story, great performance

What did you love best about Day By Day Armageddon?

The story gets you involved, as soon as things start to bad (at the beginning of the story of course) you're drawn in first of all by Jay Snyder's great performance. I was truly impressed by the overall experience.

Any additional comments?

Looking forward to the second book.

Lose weight and still supersize your meals

What did you like best about Day By Day Armageddon? What did you like least?

Vampires and zombies are alike since to die you must kill a certain part and they are immortal otherwise or somewhat akin to soccer players trapped in the snowy mountains.

Did Day By Day Armageddon inspire you to do anything?

Never watch zombie movies or read about them -
