Epic Apocalypse: Apocalyptic Horror Box Set

by Mark Tufo, John O'Brien, Shawn Chesser

Epic Apocalypse Boxed Set
Welcome to the Apocalypse
Tis’ the season for all things that go bump in the night. Today’s top selling horror authors bring to you this boxed set of six full length apocalyptic tales. Turn the lights off, enjoy the ride and find out what is lurking under your bed.


Mark Tufo – Zombie Fallout
"Working as both straight up survival fiction and comedy, Mark Tufo's FALLOUT is a gory, laugh out loud tale of a community of heroes, cowards and misfits struggling against zombies. Tufo's unlikely hero is one of the funniest and most endearing characters I've seen in zombie fiction." - Craig DiLouie, author of TOOTH AND NAIL and THE INFECTION


Heath Stallcup – Return Of The Phoenix: Monster Squad
Stallcup's debut is a fun, rollercoaster ride of a story, and easily the best that I've read all year. It's part military fiction, part horror, with elements of fantasy and science fiction thrown in the mix. Yet somehow, this novel has the stark realism and well-researched detail you would expect to find in nonfiction. The author's vivid characters and comfortable writing style left me believing in all the things that go bump in the night and more importantly, in the men and women who hunt them down! – Jaye H


John O’Brien – A New World: Chaos
Once I picked up this novel and began reading I could not put it down. The characters are well developed and the story is filled with edge-of-your-seat action. I dare you to pick up a copy and read it. – Troy D


Armand Rosamilia – Darlene Bobich: Zombie Killer
Upon finishing this book, I asked myself "What makes this one different from all the others I've read?". I'm here to tell you just that. Armand is meticulously descriptive, his characters are colorful & he doesn't fail to leave out any gory zombie details. His zombies are still creepily human, with desires beyond eating brains. Darlene is loveable, strong, & heroic, while being fragile & very female at the same time. I found myself holding my breath more than once, wondering what was waiting around the proverbial corner for our little band of survivors. The end is surprising, & leaves you craving more. A wonderful, entertaining read. I'm a fan for life!! – Susan M


Shawn Chesser – Trudge: Surviving The Zombie Apocalypse
Author Shawn Chesser has written a zombie story full of scares, excitement, sadness and kick-butt action. Unlike other authors, even some of the big names, Chesser understands female character as well as male. This is such an important thing in a book with strong characters that are of both sex. I would recommend this book to all zombie fans, it’s a good one. - examiner


James Cook- No Easy Hope: Surviving The Dead
I absolutely adored this book! The storyline and the characters kept my interest and I couldn't put it down! This has to be in the top five of my favorite zombie books so far. For those that love zombie stories this is a must read! – G. Atkinson

I originally bought the boxed set to initiate my Kindle in 2013 with a very affordable series of books. I had not fallen in love with ebooks yet. My ex and oldest son dragged me kicking and screaming into this world, and I'm shocked to realize myself a fan. I will always prefer a hard copy, but ebooks allow for a bigger library, and after all isn't that better? Epic Apocalypse by Mark Tufo is a wall-to-wall, zombie apocalypse compilation of some really accomplished male writers playing with the concept. They all fulfilled their objectives to varying degrees, but it's really important to note that the writers are all males that have served in the military, which is my way of saying that there's a lot of juvenile, masculine behavior that's supposed to appear as courageous, but may really amount to the measuring of one's junk. Take that as a given, along with tons of gore and expletives, and then you might actually enjoy this compilation which includes six series initiating novels, with two excerpts of other series. There is also information on the writers and a list of their works and websites which invite follow-up. I especially enjoyed the first and last novels, but I would recommend a gander at all of these books. At the very least you're talking about 50 to 60 hours of entertainment for a low price. I recommend this set highly.

I had already finished the Apocalyptic series of both authors Mark Tufo's series and James Cook, but still purchased this boxed set hoping the other four books will be just as good...I wasn't disappointed. I loved the stories written by both Armand Rosamilia and Shawn Chesser and have already downloaded the next books in each of their series, thus, keeping me busy for the next several weeks. Mark did an excellent job in creating this bundle...if you like books in the genre and have not yet read tomes by these authors, then you are in for a treat. It is also most likely that you'll be consumed by other works of these authors well into the New Year. Highly recommended!

This collection was a smart one for the authors. I ended up buying close to a dozen books to finish series that started in this collection.

Apocalypse Wow!

What do you get in this boxed set? You get six full length apocalyptic stories and one helluva of teaser from the great Joe McKinney. I have never read a book of his that I didn't love. I have read all of Shawn Chesser's STZA series and will continue to look forward to the next. Armand Rosamilia, Mark Tufo and John O'Brien I will be buying the rest of your series as you hooked me with these great stories. Heath Stallcup and James Cook you have made a new fan and I'll be looking into more of your books also.
This is a wild ride of zombies, vampires and werewolves with meaty characters and action packed terror, drama and yes sometimes humour. I highly recommend this boxed set to anyone who enjoys the horror genre. You will not regret it. Well done gentlemen

Enjoyed the heck out of this compilation of books. Having already read and LOVED the ZF series by Mark Tufo I decided, on his recommendation to buy it. I was certainly not disappointed! I have already bought quite a few other parts to three of the series. Can't wait to read them, with some new from Mark, I hope! Would recommend this to all.

I love zombies!!!!

The only reason I have this book a 4 is because of the monster story. Very disappointing since there were no zombies.
