Dead Evil Mercenary Corps #1
New Rules for Firefights
Have you ever been sick of being the low man on the totem pole?
A trio of mercs feel your pain. Chill, Ivan, and Kortez have been slaving away as mercenaries for years but enough is enough and they are done putting up with being an afterthought.
Striking out alone is a risk, but mercenary work is not exactly in short supply…
In the depths of a mine-riddled world, the Swarm is stirring. Chitinous hordes boil up from the depths, claiming lives and resources.
Never let a good crisis go to waste, they say.
So what is our intrepid trio to do? Lock and load for thunderous action and the antics of a batch of ne’er do wells with more firepower than good sense!

This looks like it's going to be yet another great ZOO series.
I was caught up very quickly in this story, especially when Daria, from 'Dark Angel Merchant Marines' appeared in the bar fight that started it all! Lol
But I immediately took to Chill
and, when her two team mates, Ivan and Kortez, joined her to form their own Corps, that was it - I was hooked!
I was really taken with the Bugz in this story, and I hope to find out more about them some time but, in the meantime, I'll be happy to find out more about life among the stars, in a future time! Lol
So, without wasting any time, I'm going to follow my chronological reading list, which means I'll be popping back to Daria's series, to read Book Three: 'No One Dies Alone' which, I believe, is the final book of this particular series, sadly.
So, without ado, I'm off to read it, and I'll catch you on the flip side, to let you know what I think about it!

another good book, very interesting characters, waiting to see what happens next. The only thing I didn’t like no spoilers bring a knife to a rock fight for chill, give me a break. Will have to see how the characters develop, I will read the next book, I find myself interested. You will too
First of all let me say I didn’t particularly care for the zoo series. But I enjoyed these new books that are placed 1000 years in the future. The characters in this book show a lot of promise. The action is fast-paced and for netic, I hope that technology improves somewhat in the future of the series.

Dead Evil 1
Awesome read. So glad to see some more ZOO spin-offs! It puts a great new twist on a epic foundation of stories while also being a great stand alone series. But I have a feeling it's going to be a whole lot better if you've read some of the other ZOO series. ( Cryptid Assassin, McFadden and Banks, Birth of Heavy Metal)

Bugtastic
Another great Anderle series. This one was entertaining and funny. The little bug hero was an unexpected twist. The action is non stop and the storyline was great. All you can ask for in a book.

All the bu....tail kicking you expect from a Michael Anderle tale.
I just finished the entire series, and kept the first book so I could review everything.
As is usual with a MA story, this one started off with a bang and keeps the hits coming. I really enjoyed this one.

A good action sci-fi with lots of guns and fights and interesting characters. A fine first of a series that promises surprises with the few threads dropped in the overarching long plot spanning the series.

This was a fun story to read and an exciting one to boot. The characters are quirky and it’s an excellent first book in a series. I will pick up other books in the series at some point and rate this one with five stars.

Loved it
Love the play between the members of Dead Evil Mercenary Corps! They have each other’s back when they need. They all contribute to their missions. Can’t wait to read more!

Great read, Michael always delivers and can be dam funny; wait until you meet Kortez's "son". Not to be missed!

This was interesting. Not my usual read or listen but it definitely kept my interest even if certain things annoyed me.
