Storm Orphans

by Matt Handle

In 2011, a television reporter inexplicably started spouting gibberish in the middle of her on-air report. Five years later, what’s become known as the Babylonian Plague has killed 99% of the world’s population and turned virtually everyone else into raving cannibals that are more blood-thirsty zombie than man. These monsters are now simply known as the Afflicted. Storm Orphans is the story of a handful of survivors that avoided infection and now make their way through the dangerous ruins of Florida and Georgia in search of who caused this biological catastrophe and what, if any, future might be left for mankind.

Storm orphans

I enjoyed this read. It wasn't the run of the mill zombie story. The characters were believable and I learned enough to have a feeling for them. The story moved right along and I liked that it wasn't impossible to kill these monsters. I would read his next read.
