Bleeders: Book 2, A Rising Storm
If it doesn't kill you, someone infected with it will.
Bleeders: A Rising Storm continues the saga of Brody Tate where The Red Death left off. Both he and his trusty companion Jeremiah have survived the Red Flu, yet they aren't the same people they were before the infection. Their sleep is plagued with nightmares, and their waking hours prone to violent outbursts of almost inhuman levels.
After having their escape from New York City go south, the two men are on their own again, making their way back toward the food bank where they'd once found safe haven. On the way they stop to rescue a few survivors, who decide to join their party- even if not all of them trust two men with red eyes and bad tempers. Together they'll try once again to flee a city gone to Hell.
But the dangers they find don't just come from the Bleeders. Between random firefights, the looming plans of the military, and increasing trouble from a new kind of cult, they'll have to ask themselves what's worse: the infected, or the survivors?

Excellent Series.
Not only is the story line great, but the main character Brody has the attitude to back up his bad boy act. The books are written in first person, from Brody's perspective. Writing in first person takes a very talented author. I absolutely love Brody and his matter of fact jokes. He is the hero he never wanted to be. I look forward to the next book! Hats off to Brian Martinez, excellent series with a very memorable character!!

Great read! The plot moves even faster in this book and is full of great characters (love old man Will). I'm very interested to see how things play out with rescuing Allison!
