The Outbreak: The Resistance is Dead: Book 1

First published in 2016, this is the story of a global pandemic that has infected roughly a third of the world in a short time. A national quarantine has been declared and Americans are uncertain about the future. President Adam Chambers is midway through his first term, and tries to leverage his popularity with the people to inspire cooperation between the governed and their government.Meanwhile, a group of friends who have fantasized survivalism scenarios for years are about to be in for the ride of their life. When the mysterious new virus starts to kill the infected, and the dead come back with a hunger for brains and human flesh, the line begins to blur between reality and fantasy.The friends rely on their shared love of decades of zombie pop culture, hundreds of hours of gaming, and a couple of trunks of survivalist gear. President Chambers learns about a strangely real Pentagon zombie outbreak contingency plan that was drafted in the 1970s. Will fast thinking and familiarity with "the rules" be enough to keep society from falling apart?Review for "The Outbreak" (April 2017 Kindle Occult Horror #1 Best-Seller, and September 2024 Horror Suspense and Conspiracy Thriller Kindle #1 Best-Sellers):"A concise and metaphorically apt exploration of the contemporary American psyche. This book is the literary equivalent of Con Air if it were directed by David Lynch, with a screenplay by Mike Judge."
