Synopsis

For thirty years, they have avoided the outbreak of walking death that has consumed America's heartland. They have secured a small compound near the ruins of Little Rock, Arkansas. Isolated from the world, they have remained blissfully unaware of what lies outside in the region known as the Dead Lands. Until now.



Led by a military vet who's seen better days, the inexperienced offspring of the original survivors form a small expedition to explore the wastelands around them. A biologist, an anthropologist, a photographer, a salvage expert—all are hoping to build a new future from the rubble. But the infected are still out there. Stalking. Feeding. Spreading like a virus. Wild animals roam the countryside, hunting prey. Small pockets of humanity hide in the shadows: some scared, some mad, all dangerous. This is the New World. If the explorers want it, they'll have to take it. Dead or alive.

Goodreads review by Dustin on October 22, 2014

This is a new version of the zombie apocalypse, separate from the previous Dead World series. Just a heads up. It's still a zombie novel, but independent from what you may have already read. Same with Savage Dead. He's creating different time lines. I enjoyed the first book of this new time line, bu......more

Goodreads review by Vivian on July 01, 2018

I think there was an opportunity to write a gripping, exciting zombie novel but JM totally dropped the ball. The book reads like a Walmart Walking Dead story. I mean, the setting is about 30 years into the ZA and his characters behave like it’s their first rodeo—all noobs and fuckups. The only perso......more

I couldn't put this book down for the life of me. There better be a sequel to this book that's all I have to say mr. Mckinney because that ending left me feeling a little empty!!!! What another fantastic adventure this was. The twists on this zombie plagued world were actually very refreshing but le......more
