Unsafe: Book 5 of the Post-Apocalyptic Zombie Horror series
Reeling from the loss of loved ones, surrounded by infected and with old enemies still on the hunt, there’s no respite for BD, Deano and the remaining survivors.
Now a fresh wrinkle threatens to tear their fragile world apart.
They’re up against the clock like never before as they try to escape the labyrinthine city. But not all in their ranks are who they seem and a single act of madness plunges the scrapyard refugees into a life and death struggle for survival.
The road to freedom is just over the horizon, but for some it will be a journey beyond reach.

About the author
Christopher Artinian
79 books284 followersI was born and raised in Leeds, West Yorkshire. Wanting to escape life in a big city and concentrate more on working to live than living to work, I moved to the Outer Hebrides in the north-west of Scotland in 2004 and I have lived there ever since with my wife and dogs.
I write post-apocalyptic, sci-fi, dystopian and horror fiction. I’ve released fifty one books across six different series - Safe Haven, The End of Everything, Unsafe, Relentless, The Burning Tree and Scares in Scotland.
In addition, most of my titles are now available as audiobooks narrated by Kim Bretton, so if you’re one of the many people who struggle to find the time to read, you can listen on the go.

The calm before the storm...
Not my favourite in the series but it still couldn't stop myself from reading through it in the space of a day.
It starts instantly where it left off and it doesn't really pull any punches until the epilogue. The smaller characters from the last book make more of an appearance and add an extra layer of intrigue to the storyline.
The parts that stuck with me are when Bruce died after killing a paedophile, and then Deano and Garo dealing with another in a brutal and horrific fashion. It was unexpected but added a darker edge to an already dark series.
The new antagonists in the series are both dangerous in their own right and I can't wait to see how it will all come to head. I am worried though because deep down I know something bad is going to happen to one of the main characters (I pray I'm wrong).
Solid entry into the series, excited for the next part.
8/10.

BD, Deano and the rest of the group's survivors just can't catch a break. They need to move before the streets in the city flood but then one of the survivors in a moment of madness dooms more of them. The upcoming journey needs to happen sooner than later and will they all survive the journey? Another great character driven, emotionally charged tale by Artinian.

So good
There is a great deal of tension in this episode of the story. The group from the scrap yard need to find a way out of town and to stay out of sight of the gang hunting them. There are internal dangers hiding within the group as well. I can't wait for the story to continue.

going well
As usual another page turner from Christopher, great and diverse characters. A safe haven of the south. Talking of which I would like to know when we will see more of EoE and safe haven?

Unsafe Book 5 is once again outstanding. There are tears, sorrow, horror and also laughter along the way. Mr Artinian continues to captivate us with his stories and eagerly await the next book
