In the Atlantic, a red tide has blossomed unlike any seen before. Maiming and killing plants, animals, and humans who experience even the slightest exposure, it grows out of control - both in salt and fresh water - wreaking havoc across the world.
On the Gulf Coast, disgraced biologist Sam Griffin makes a discovery about the algae that could lead to the cure - if he could convince anyone to believe him.
Texas schoolteacher Misty Swanson waves goodbye to her parents as they embark on a cruise, clueless as to the danger they - and she - are about to be thrust into.
And a disgraced senator with connections to the disaster who crawled inside a bottle must pull himself out to rescue his estranged wife and sick child - or die trying.

A novel like no other!
I started to read this. I was ready for a good book from Mike, as always. But it turned out to be so much more. Mike wove a great story about what could have been the for all of us. But he led us through to the end without fail with a cure.
I was ready to be upset because with such a great story many authors end their novels too quickly. But not Mike. Not this time.
Well done my friend. We'll do.done.

Dead Sea: The Complete Series - a review by Rosemary Kenny.
DF Brooks and Mike Kraus' magnificent 'what if...? dystopian 6 book Dead Sea series masterpiece is available right now at an amazing, value-for-money price that you must not miss.
1)Dead Sea:
A hideous red algae that causes a worldwide 'algaepocalypse', killing any life-forms it touches, may be man-made, but who will dare to become a whistleblower?
2) Crimson Surge:
Biologist Sam Griffin thinks he may have found an antidote for the deadly crimson biomass, that's rapidly mutating currently claiming the lives of all who come into contact with it.
Can he make things work with his own serum?
Is it already too late for all life as we know it?
3)Stolen Refuge:
Sam, Vanessa and their son Zack are in a New Mexico 'oasis', trying to develop more of Sam's anti-algae vaccine, despite limited resources.
Who else arrives there separately and what are their intentions?
4) Red Storm:
By seeking refuge at her aunt and uncle's home, has Misty put herself and her daughter in a worse situation?
What makes her so apprehensive?
Has Senator Paulson really turned over a new leaf by helping sisters Jane and Naomi?
Can Sam and his family find refuge in Silver City?
5) Safe Haven:
Rabia Laurent's altruistic daughter Aziza makes it to safety, with a Sam's life-changing addition that may bring salvation - if they can reach Samsara.
What's happening with Misty and the others?
Will Joe Lund and his cult survive the Apocalypse in their forest compound?
Meanwhile, Rabia's son Idris imprisons his mother, her lover Alan and his enemies, while all around the Oasis people are dying horribly from the algae-contaminated rainstorms and water supplies. Who will survive?
6) Final Siege:
Dr Sam Griffin, Vanessa, Rapp and Rabia's daughter Aziza, are heading into the Oasis through a hidden underground entrance. They reach the pure water source, while Aziza and Rapp head onwards to take out Idris, before he can kill again.
What happens next for each group?
Will the antidote to the red algae finally end its dystopian nightmare reign?

Riveting from page 1
I read this all the way through nonstop from book 1 to book 6 and enjoyed every minute! It’s a different take on the End of The World as We Know It genre which sparked my interest in the first place and the strong characters, desperate situations and triumphant moments which kept me here. If you’re looking for something to be engrossed in, this is it! Enjoy the ride.

Apocalyptic!
Each book in the set follows the other so you want to read these in order BUT you WANT to read them all! This story was well weaved into a horrific yet uplifting tale of the good and the worst of mankind with such a rich and impressive detail. I read them straight through until finished and sad it finally ended. The last book was as good as the beginning with a heartwarming and tidy end.

What a series that will keep you up at night reading A strange thing is destroying everything in its path. What will all the people do, where will they go. Each page will have you feeling a part of all the emotions that the survivors have to deal with. Can’t wait for the next series by these two outstanding authors.

Excellent
This series is amazing. I loved these books. The characters are really well done and so easy to identify with. No special forces guys with hi tech equipment to save the day. Just regular people and a couple of scientists doing their best with what they can find. It's also probably one of the most terrifying types of apocalypse I've read about.

This story had me hooked right from the beginning!
Character development was absolutely fantastic. I really felt for each as they went through the apocalypse.
Only con is that it felt the author rushed the wrap-up. I felt like the end was thrown at me and missed the care spent on the story from earlier on.

Not worth my quality of life.
I read trough half of this group of books and just not keep going.
It is a bunch of idiots going about the end of the world like it’s either a party or they are all that matters with the few good people being weak minded and not able to fight back.
I just couldn’t keep on going.

it’s a good story
Good series, great character development. The issues I have are numerous though. Cities that someone “traveled through” that are hundreds of miles away from any of the numerous ways to get to a location, jumping around too much, the whole Given thing could have been left out entirely, and the final book seemed rushed. Especially the last 15 chapters or so.

Choppy
I thought this book was interesting but I didn't like the way it jumped from one group to the next. I found that it didn't flow and tie into the next cha. It was Okay but I didn't really enjoy it as much as I have others.

Too much
Just.... Too much.... Too long.... Some stories were full of to many details that really didn't matter. Seemed to be added just to make the book longer. I love reading Mr. Kraus but I had to make myself finish this book.

Dead Sea
It took me longer to read this 6 book series than it would do normally! I did enjoy it but got a bit confused once in a while the way it jumped from place to place , ( that's a good thing )
I like that it was different in a good way!
Thank you for the hrs of distraction.

Amazing read kept me gripped from book one all the way to the end
Amazing read kept me gripped from book one all the way to the end. Great bonds of friendship and love loss and pain.

Great 6 book series!
I so much enjoyed this series. It was different than many other apocalyptic stories I have read. It was well written and had many twists, turns, and surprises throughout. It was hard to put it down.

My thoughts
Strange that so many people and names and places were so similar. Otherwise I would have given it a 6.

I'm not going to finish this set. I think it could have been condensed, which might up the tension. I just got tired of it.
