Drifters

Omega Days, Book 3

De: John L. Campbell

Narrado por: Richard Ferrone

The heart-pounding and inventive zombie apocalypse series continues - from "one of the shining stars of the zombie genre." (Joe McKinney, Bram Stoker Award-winning author)

The survivors of the Omega Virus make a desperate effort to find the living. But the walking dead aren't done with them yet.

Helicopter pilot Vladimir Yurish is a man of his word. The last thing he wants is to abandon the safety of the U.S.S. Nimitz and his newly adopted son Ben. Still, a promise is a promise, no matter how close to death it brings him.

Angie West has fought hard to keep strangers alive, but now it's time to tend to her own. Only, when she finds her family missing and their hideout burned and looted, she realizes the threat to her family isn't just the undead - the living can do so much worse.

Halsey has done well for himself, given the circumstances. Between his secluded ranch and precise shooting, the plague hasn't touched him. Until a Black Hawk crashes on his property, bringing the war to his front door.

Amid the chaos of a destroyed civilization, the survivors encounter a new threat. And these new monsters can't be outrun - or outwitted.

Book 3 of the series was just as powerful...

Drifters!!

Another good read! Narrator was excellent and I’m on to the next in the series.

This series is the BEST!

Book 3 of the series and this reads like the first - non stop action. I’m hooked! Can’t wait for the next book!

the best

absolutely love this series! so intense and very well written. the books grab you and won't let go!

Had trouble getting into the story,

Had trouble getting into the story, but once I did, I enjoyed it. I probably should have re-listened to the first two books before starting this once as it's been some time since I read the fist two.

the cracks have split open

2.5/5

the pattern of campbell’s writing shows drastically here, faux tension and extensive sequences of repetitive action make this the weakest entry by far. most zombie stories have a point where they reach the “humans are the true monster” thesis, and they all have a sort of similar approach in doing so. it’s the walking dead. 28 weeks later. mountain man. any zombie story wherein the survivors form a harsh militia.

i’d be more inclined to enjoy this if it wasn’t clear that the author really only wants to tell half the story — any & all of your favourite characters are not going to be covered here, in favor of a classic rescue mission tale through the lens of a character that’s not very interesting.
