Semper Die

By: Jonathan Shuerger, J.F. Holmes

Narrated by: Jonathan Shuerger

The dead rose expecting a feast. What they got was a firefight.

Sergeant Alex Slaughter and the Marines of Alpha Squad were on a routine training exercise near Quantico when everything went silent. No comms. No command. No clue.

What they find when they return to base is worse than anything they trained for: a bioweapon has unleashed a zombie virus that has shattered civilization, and now they must survive the Collapse.

But as the squad pushes deeper into hostile territory—through the death-choked streets of Arlington and into the rot-stained corridors beneath D.C.—they discover that the undead aren’t the only threat. Desperate survivors, rogue military units, and darker truths buried beneath the weight of secrecy will test their loyalty, their mission, and their very humanity.

Written by USMC veteran Jonathan Shuerger and set in J.F. Holmes’s brutal and unrelenting Irregular Scout Team One universe, Semper Die delivers pulse-pounding action, authentic military detail, and a terrifying vision of what happens when duty and apocalypse collide.

If you crave hard-hitting military thrillers, brotherhood forged in battle, and Marines who refuse to die quietly—this is your next mission.

Lock. Load. Semper Fi. Semper Die.

B Movie status

it's a fun bit of a rollercoaster not to be taken too seriously, unplug and enjoy the show. kinda wish the narrator did some of the voices differently but that's also the charm that comes with it.

Great intro to the collapse

Great story well done nicely crafted. Told without cussing, which is a rarity in the zombie genre well worth read and the purchase.

great Marine zombie book

was a 0621 so no bias to dakota or anything. if your a marine you will love this book. I haven't finished it yet but God I hope there's more. -Ellis yes I got mad shit for my last name and left for dead 2 in the corp.

Great modern warfare tail with interesting plot twists and several levels of story lines all excellent.

While having multiple enemies in weaving in and out of the plots and subplots has been done before, I don’t know that I’ve seen it done any better especially in this genre.

Just too short

I enjoyed the whole book. It was a excellent break from the space stuff. Good book
