Zombie Rage

Walking Plague Trilogy #2

by J.R. Rain, Elizabeth Basque

Los Angeles County park ranger, Jack Carter, is about to discover that not all is as it seems in his tranquil life. Once responsible for patrolling the many public parks, in particular the popular Griffith Park with its famous observatory and zoo, Jack is about to discover that a whole new kind of animal roams his woods.

The undead kind.

Now, as Jack struggles to stay sane—as the hunger within him grows to insatiable, uncontrollable levels—he's about to confront his greatest fear. Indeed, the cure to the worldwide infection just might be worse than the zombies themselves.

Now, with the walking dead spreading like wildfire, feasting on all those unlucky enough to cross their paths, one family just might have come across a cure to save all mankind....one family against an army of the undead.

Entertaining zombies listening 🎶🔰

Another will written fantasy world 🌎 zombie horror haunting adventure thriller short story by J.R.Rain ☔ and Elizabeth Basque (Walking Plague Trilogy book 2). Jack is sick with the plague and is in the basement. They do the cure on him and the fun begins to 👍 stay alive. This book ends with Anna being bitten by a zombie continues in book 3. I would recommend this series and authors to readers of fantasy haunting adventure novels. J. R. Rain ☔ and his various fellow authors are favorites of mine. Enjoy the adventure of reading or listening to Alexa read books 📚. 2022 😢😈😠

This is one of the most Mysterious books I have ever tried to read.

I can’t recommend any of these books. First off this author knows nothing about military or fire arms. You Lt. Commanders that have never worn an officer’s uniform. Similar-automatic weapons use clips not magazines. An ammo depot is a arms barracks. If your going to write using Military issues do some home work.

[Alysha · Rating 4 out of 5]

Let me start off that the Military and some of the police discrepancies were a bit annoying, but most civilians wouldn’t catch it. So that was a bummer Didn’t care for this book as much as the first. But still love the Characters, even the ones you should hate. Storyline is not as cohesive, but feels like it’s going somewhere and hopefully will come together in the third book.

Hmmm

I know it's just the first book but when it comes to zombies you expect more than droning onwards the same repeating statement an nothing interesting happens. It kept skipping pages when that happens I've lost interest!

Wow

This installment of the series is really intense. The plague is out of control and safety is hard to find. I can't wait to see what comes next.

Standard zombie drama.

[Laura Crosse · Rating 3 out of 5]

You have to just take this for what it is and that is a fairly average zombie story. I enjoyed the first in this series more probably because having read a few tough books before it I was just so glad to have something nice and easy to read that I overlooked it's obvious flaws.

The flaws stood out a tad more in this book to me. It's too short first of all. I mean realistically the three books in the trilogy could have been compressed into one large book without a problem. It's all a little gung-ho, American for my taste but I can get over that if the writing is good. It ain't.

We follow Jack again as he fights the infection and eventually is cured by his brother and girlfriend by being drowned. I did like that little scenario of having a window during the infection where you could actually be cured. It put a good spin on the zombie yarn.

However I feel like each book now has the exact same situation arising in it. The first book saw Jacks brother Joe being infected, and then Jack was infected in the second and now it looks like Anna will be the patient in the third. I hope she actually turns completely just so it's a different storyline.

These books ain't bad but they sure as hell aren't anything fantastic either.

That's an interesting cover. It made me think this book would be scary. It wasn't as scary as i thought it should be. Anna totally got on my nerves, because seriously, do you think a zombie apocalypse is the best time to bring act out your teenage rebellion phase? She's smart enough to figure out what happened to Mike and how, which makes me forget shes only 14, but then she disobeys everyone possible and doesnt even get anything meaningful done. There were points in the book where i wished someone would smack her upside the head for her stupidity. Sadly that was not to be.

Im not sure what the point of this book was exactly. All that seemed to happen is curing Jack, or maybe my memory is just being spotty. Not a bad book, however I would have liked more of an explanation as too what the rocks were all about. (Who sent them? Why? How? What?) So many unanswered questions. Like why so much emphasis on Anna's dark matter in the first book. How was that relevant at all. It's totally not btw.

Seeing as how it's not a particularly long book I cant complain too much. Read if you dont mind a bit of fluff.

Wow. I am still reeling from the cliff hanger. Where Book 1 sets up the story Book 2 rocks the horrifying terror. This was a fast read, possibly because I was glued to it. Zombie Rage, which is aptly named, does not let up on the action. The things the survivors believed about the zombies are challenged. Will they be able to switch what they thought with the new reality? Or will some fall? I am really enjoying this trilogy. I recommend it to lover's of Horror and Zombies.

[RJ · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's okay, not great. Can there be too many characters to keep track of? It's an interesting story and a fairly good take-off on the zombie infection genre, but it is lacking. I'll probably get the third book of the trilogy when it comes out for closure, but I won't be sad if I miss it.

[Leslie · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is my first zombie series and I must say I am pleased. This second book went right along with the first one...good writing, story and plot. The source of this plague is a bit odd..and the cure but it works... I would definitely recommend this series to J.R. Rain fans and zombie lovers.

[Chris · Rating 4 out of 5]

Again, loved the story. I do think that someone should have caught that whole flushing/drowning thing when this was edited. That was the only thing that bothered me. You flush a toilet and the water leaves the bowl. Not flushing it would have made more sense.

Was really excited to read the second book in the zombie series. Fast paced storyline makes this a great read.
