Explanation Toward Books Blood on the Sand (Z Plan #1)
Cale was sent to Iraq with the usual thoughts any Soldier going to war might have; being lonely away from his family, not wanting to take another human's life, and above all, the fear of never returning home. Although well trained, nothing could have prepared him for the horror he was about to face.Cale never thought the thing that could keep him from ever seeing his wife and daughter again would be a zombie apocalypse. As he and a handful of fellow Soldiers escape their base after a massive zombie attack, becoming deserters in order to survive, he begins the long and unexpected journey home through the harsh terrain of the desert; a barren landscape now swarming with not only undead cannibals, but also the enemy he was originally sent to fight.
The newly formed group plans to travel west, find a boat and maybe, with a bit of luck, make it back to America. Cale is tested beyond his imagination and brought to the brink of insanity as he loses friends while fighting the flesh eating masses. He risks his life for weeks, focused on holding his wife and daughter in his arms again. It seems all hope is lost when he finds himself alone and adrift at sea ... but is hope really lost?
Inspired by my 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. It is the first book in the Z PLAN series.

Summary: Cale is an American soldier stationed in Iraq. He is part of a supply crew that mans and defends convoys as they move shipments around the country. It's not considered a front line unit, but in the messy battlefield that is Iraq, no one is out of danger. Cale and his friends are on base when orders are given to initiate a communications blackout and eventually a total lockdown.Nervous, the soldiers find themselves defending the base from an unidentified enemy that is intent on killingA fun first bookZPlan is an excellent Zombie Novel that I enjoyed. For a first novel it is very good. The main character is fully developed though this is more of an action driven novel than a character driven one. But overall I liked the character and was rooting for him. I am thankful that he makes mistakes as this makes him realistic. There is plenty of Zombie action in this novel with a good steady pace through most of the book. Even when it slows down in the middle it makes sense to me why.
I was given a copy by the author in exchange for an honest review.This is a new to me author, and I answered a call for reviewers for books 1 and 2 from FB. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. I really enjoyed this romp of a z tale. The main character Cale was very likable and an average Joe. He wasn't Spec Ops or anything, just a good shot, so that made things more believable and real. Books 1 and 2 just continue the story of Cale, and even have some parts of his wife's trial back in the
When soldiers are deployed overseas to fight in a war, thoughts of family left behind and the time remaining before seeing them again continuously plays out in their subconscious minds - driving them in the quest for survival. "Z Plan: Blood on the Sand" begins in Iraq, where American soldiers continue their missions amid reports of a strange rapid virus spreading through Africa. Within days, the zombie apocalypse reaches them. Defenses fall, officers are all dead and without leadership,
I read this book in a day, because I simply couldn't put it down. I was with the protagonist, Cale, the whole way, flinching, holding my breath, and cheering him on. If it had been a movie, I would have been sitting on the edge of my seat with my hands in front of my eyes... peeking through them, of course!One of the things I loved about the story was that people behaved in ways that in my opinion, they quite likely would if they actually had to deal with zombies. Everyone is not a hero, people
Okay, so Im pretty sure this is the strangest review I have done to date! Let me say, right of the bat, I REALLY disliked Book #1 but completely LOVED Book #2. But, at the end of the day, even though I didnt like Book #1, I am still going to recommend you read it because it will enhance your experience with Book #2.AWESOME STUFF:*Even though I didnt like this book, I still found myself eagerly turning pages, desperate to know what was going to happen next. Cant believe the author managed to do
I'm not going to lie, my husband and I personally know Mikhail, so one would think I possibly like Zombie related stuff (My husband does for sure!) Well I'm kind of on the fence with zombie stuff, but I finished this book in a day. I couldn't put it down. I've even recommended this book to several friends. I was surprised at how well everything was described, especially the zombies. I felt like I was right there. I can't wait for the next book to come out to see what happens next! Keep up the
