Z Plan: Blood on the Sand (Z Plan Trilogy)

A U.S. soldier in Iraq faces unimaginable horrors when the war-torn country is overrun by zombies in this apocalyptic military thriller.When Cale was sent to Iraq, he had the typical feelings of any soldier going to war: missing his family, unease about taking a human life, and the fear of never returning home. But of all the concerns that crossed Cale’s mind, he never thought he’d face a zombie apocalypse. After a massive zombie attack on their base, Cale and a few other soldiers desert their posts and begin the long journey home through the harsh terrain of the desert; a barren landscape swarming with not only undead cannibals, but also the enemy they were sent to fight.Inspired by the author’s own experiences as a U.S. Army Soldier in Iraq, Blood on the Sand delves into the idea of not just surviving a zombie apocalypse but making the seemingly impossible trek home.

From the Back Cover

Cale, a U.S. Army Soldier, is in the middle of one conflict, just as another more terrifying one has begun. His nightmares have become a reality; the world it seems has gone insane. The insurgents are the least of his worries now. Instead, the undead have become the new enemy. Fighting for his life at every turn, and losing friends along the way, he must trek across the globe just in the hopes that he will hold his wife and daughter in his arms again.

About the Author

Mikhail Lerma was raised in the small town of Holdrege Nebraska. In the third grade he wrote his first short story, in which the main character was a monkey. Not taking his career as a writer too seriously after that, he finished his high school years by joining the army when he was only 17. He spent 10 years in the army starting as a truck driver and eventually becoming a combat medic. While deployed to Iraq in 2007 he spent missions in a turret as a gunner. In his free time he began writing a story having nothing to do with monkeys. Only time will tell if this was a good career move. With encouragement from his friends and family, he decided to start taking his writing seriously. Storytelling has become a passion of his, with a strong interest in horror and science fiction. He lives in Iowa with his wife and three daughters. He does not have a pet, but if anyone would like to donate a male dog to level out the hormones in his house that would be much appreciated.
