Best zombie series out there,
By
This review is from: Day by Day Armageddon: Origin to Exile (Paperback)
I have a deep love for the zombie genre and I have to say this is the best representation I can find of a zombie apocalypse. I have read and watched many different iterations of the zombie scenario and this one gets it correct.If you like 28 Days Later (which I think is the best representation in video form) then you will like this book. Serene moments of calm and humanity and extreme live or die moments of horror. The journal style really adds to the experience and is used very well. I couldn't stop reading each entry and by the time I knew it I was done the entire book. I own both the books individually but wanted another copy and the additional short story. I have handed my original copies around for friends to enjoy and they have become huge fans. J.L Bourne is the king of the zombie genre! Get it and love it!

fun with good all around survival info,

This review is from: Day by Day Armageddon: Origin to Exile (Paperback)
First, i think it's unfair to give the book bad reviews due to unclear info when released. It stinks if people thought they were buying a new book when they ordered but, this book should be judged on what it is not by poor labeling or advertising. What is the book? A good deal. The first book ends kind of abruptly so it's fitting that both are together here. I usually have a.d.d when it comes to books and have to read several at a time but this one moved along at a good pace and I found I cruised through it. The author is talented and really knowledgeable, only other comment I'd have is that since it's in journal format there is little or no dialogue, something that really adds to a novel I think. Later on in the second novel, that changes and there's more, but a switch from Journal to omniscient narrator? would be great. Anyway,lots of good info, learned some about the military, weapons and procedures and had fun doing it. Good book, good deal.

STOP. Consider this is an omnibus of the first two novels,
By Jeremy Y - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Day by Day Armageddon: Origin to Exile (Paperback)
Personally, this story is the best zombie story I've ever read. I completely relate to our protagonist on so many levels, it's easy to imagine what this kind of world would be like when trying to make it with almost all the same skills.That said, the description is vague. Wonderful Amazon let's us know when pre-orders are available but didn't well describe that this was a reprint of the first two books. (Which in itself awesome as I want this author to do well. Deserving, again, as it's a great series so far.) Just buyer beware, this is not a new third novel. If you've never read this series before, get this particularly newer book. As to the third, we'll just have to wait until the state gives Bourne a writing break from our ongoing wars before we see it. 6 of 8 people found the following review helpful

enjoyable post-apocalyptic America horror tales,
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Day by Day Armageddon: Origin to Exile (Paperback)
"Day by Day Armageddon." He is stationed in San Antonio. As he starts a diary, he is unprepared for the Dead attacking cities around the world. The soldier must decide on survival of the deadest with his friend John as his only trusted ally."Day by Day Armageddon: Beyond Exile." He continues keeping his log having survived three months. With other humans he stays at the Hotel 23 where he fought against fellow breathers but suffers from PTSD. However, he must leave the relatively safety of Hotel 23 on a mission that will take months in which he doubts he will return as the zombie infestation has crippled the world. "If You Can Read This..." Texas like the rest of the country is gone. Twins Brook and Eugene struggle with the deaths of their parents and younger brother, but take hope in a radio transmission they receive at the local fire station of a person claiming to be at Matagorda Island. This is an omnibus reprinting of the first two Armageddon journals and a very short story. The novels employ a refreshing technique of a survivor in a post-apocalyptic America overrun by zombies. This diary technique is two edged as the audience sees what the hero encounters and knows his demons, but also the first person account is a filter for what others believe and somewhat passive especially when the protagonist muses. Still these are enjoyable horror tales that is summed up by Eugene in seven words when he says "If You Can Read This..." Harriet Klausner |
