I had never read anything by Jonathan Maberry, but since I like the zombie genre, this book caught my eye. I like reading the "special ops" type books, and this book definitely falls into that group. It took me a while to really get into the book - I felt like the first few chapters were more of "setting it up" but then it took off quickly and I was hooked.

Joe Ledger is an ex-cop who has been recruited by a secret group in the government that is battling terrorists that have developed a virus that turns people into zombies. The interaction between Ledger and the group that was picked for his team, as well as the rest of the secret group he works with was great, and even with the violence and fighting, I often found myself laughing.

Jonathan Maberry has been added to my list of authors that I want to read more by and I will be looking for others in the Joe Ledger series.
