One Final Mission

Rate this book
Carlie, Shane, and their eclectic group of fighters gather for what they hope will be their last mission to bring about the completion of the antidote. This time they are headed to Japan in a last ditch effort to procure a vaccine replication device from a devastated country that has been a black hole since the pandemic began. Little do they know that a small band of ruthless survivors there may hold the key to their salvation. With time running out and their resources stretched thin from countless battles against the flesh-hungry zombies filling Osaka, Carlie and Shane have to choose between personal obligations and the larger struggle for survival that could determine the fate of the human race.

A gotta read series

Okay. I loved Carlie's saga. I've said much in other reviews regarding the quality and/or quantity of the work but for this one, hands down... You just HAVE to read this series. I'm even going to go and leave a review on the first book of this series, just because it's that good!

Good finale to a great series

Loved the series as a whole, don't want to spoil anything for people that haven't read it yet but hated to loose members of the team

Great series!

If you haven’t read the whole series, start at the first and read through to this book. It’s a good take on zombies and the characters who would survive an apocalypse!

Outstanding read

East meets West and work for one common goal, redistribute a cure and keep fighting for another day. It is hard to pick just one favorite character, so I won't.

A pretty good ending

One final mission. To find out if it is a success and if all of the brave men a women return, you must read this last book. Well written and lots of action!

After completing the first book in this series and writing a review, I quickly downloaded book #2 and got into it. When finished, I thought I'd wait until completing the series and then write individual reviews for the four books. Well guess what? I couldn't do it! So, I'm resorting to writing a single review that can be used across the entire series.

Through this series, JT Sawyer takes readers along on these special missions to find a cure that will rid the planet of this lethal virus. Each book has its share of zombies, gore, evil humans, mixed in with a smidgeon of hope and camaraderie. We'll see these primary characters grow strong and become fierce warriors as time moves forward in the storyline. Even the president's daughter, Aliza, transforms from a young, selfish and spoiled college student to a skilled fighter, and Jarred, the thief and smart-ass, becomes likeable. We'll see evil, ruthless people who want to rule the world and think nothing of human lives or preservation of it along with a special breed of zombies which are powerful, super human, extremely fast and vicious killers. The final book takes readers to Japan where the inhabitants suffered from Legionnaires Disease before the pandemic and zombies are much more dangerous, smarter and feral then those in the U.S.

These special teams led by Shane and Carlie are placed into extreme circumstances and must work together for the mission success above everything else. At times, team members find it difficult to continue with the plan and mission when one of their own is in trouble, and learn that sacrifices must sometime be made for the sake of the mission.

The stories are intense, plausible and real page turners. Readers will find themselves cheering for the good guys and feel the sorrow when losing a team member. This is a series that I highly recommend for zombie lovers and readers of this genre. Now that I've finished, I feel like I lost a special friend. Mr. Sawyer is a fantastic writer and I will surely look into more of his work.

Satisfying Ending

Great series, beginning to end (assuming this is the last?). The action contained within this story was more edge of your seat than can be found in any of the previous books.
Well written. Great characters. Fantastic storylines. Satisfying ending.

I enjoyed the series. I liked that there was back story, continually moving plot, most of the story felt feasible (No-one got pregnant w/o contraception?) and the foreshadowing was not too heavy handed.
