I'm up to book seven of Mark Tufo's Zombie Fallout series, Got them on audio having heard a sample and loved the narrator's style.
It's brilliant. Really fun ride. Not like any other zombie story I've come across. What's intriguing is that the main character, Mike Talbot, who is something of an every man character, is the same lead in all his books. We meet him as a teenager in the Indian Hill series, then as the lead in Zombie Fallout and later on we meet him again as an immortal in Lycan Fallout. They're sort of the same guy, but not a continuous story as such. Like the same guy has led several different lives.
I haven't read the other series, but I will do!
He's an indy writer, initially self publishing and then with a small publishing house. So, every so often there is a bit that could be edited. But there's a real joy and verve to his writing that makes the whole thing a fun ride.
Dark, funny, and very human.
