Zombies Begin
Cliffhanging, action packed, and disturbing! This is a neat take on the viral/zombie apocalypse. This story is filled with interesting characters that run the gambit from well prepared bad ass to cowardly 'wrong-place-wrong-time' sidekicks.
- Jett Cat
I really enjoyed reading this story, good characters and a fast pace keep my interest all the way through this book. A most enjoyable read.

Don't eat the soup! Interesting perspective on zombies, well worth reading. Looking forward to a long series.
- Edward Fox
On a seemingly normal evening, Michael Fuller and his work colleague, Johnny Chen, enjoy a rare Chinese meal together — “Dragon, Tiger, Phoenix soup.” It’s supposed to help Fuller fight off a cold, but what happens next could spark a pandemic never before seen.
Just days after Fuller discovers Johnny Chen has been infected with a mysterious illness, he realizes he may encounter the same fate. But this isn’t an ordinary illness. Hunted and on the run Fuller is in a race against time to stop a potential Zombie pandemic, one that he might very well create. It threatens to topple governments and to destroy humanity itself. His one problem — there is no cure.

The story was good, hard to come up with anything different with zombies anymore, I didn't realize this was written in 2014 until I started looking for the additional books in the series only to find out there weren't anymore, this was a one and done. Too bad I would have read more of the story line.

Slow Moving, Sort of Dull.....
It could have been better. Worth the read for those who want the full back-story before reading the second book. The second book will be much better, I assume, as the story will take place during the actual apocalypse, whereas book one is pre-apocalypse. There were some moments of brilliance in this book, but mostly it was sort of dull. Too much build up to get to the good stuff, where book two will begin. Overall, I'm sure no one will miss much by skipping this book and starting the series with book two (assuming it will be better/less dull). Also, the main characters were not fleshed out enough; even in the final pages I still didn't care what happened to any of the 4/5 characters. *shrug* Lets hope book two offers more (likable) character development, less drawn-out, boring scenes. I will give book two a try, but I won't finish it if I can tell from the start it's just like book one. Had I known this book would never reach the "good parts" I was hoping I'd eventually find, I wouldn't have continued reading past the first few chapters.

This is a well written book that has good character development and a very unique story line. Not your normal zombie book. Looking forward to the next one.
