Ship of the Dead: 2 (Omega Days Novel)

When people ask me to recommend great zombie fiction one of the names I consistently mention is John L. Campbell. Nobody writes an urban battle scene quite like he does. The pace of his storytelling will leave you breathless, and his characters are so real and so likeable you will jump up and cheer for them. Omega Days is, hands down, one of the shining stars of the zombie genre. Do yourself a favor and move this one to the top of your to-be-read pile right now. You can thank me later. --Joe McKinney, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Savage Dead and Dead City

Characters as diverse as a priest fallen from grace, to a prisoner who finds his heart, are all in this story of terror....Campbell is good with characters...It's stories like Omega Days, with a setting in a popular city that most people have heard about, that can take an average story and make it unique. --Examiner.com

An impressively convincing vision of a world suddenly gone insane...The maelstrom that Campbell creates is a somber portrayal of the human capacity for both selfishness and, more rarely, altruism. He effectively builds a mood of terror that sweeps the reader along in this powerful example of zombie thriller genre at its best. --Publishers Weekly

A highly entertaining read with a style that grabbed me from the very first page...There are creepy echoes...of masters like Koontz and King...If you want highly entertaining, escapist, zombie fiction with plenty of action peopled by rich and interesting characters, you couldn't do better than Omega Days. --SF Revu
