Arisen, Book Four -MAXIMUM VIOLENCEIn Canterbury, as the virus rages out of control, one troop of Royal Marine Commandos fights a 360-degree battle for survival, while also racing to rescue the Channel Tunnel survivors from a relentless siege - all before Hellfire missile strikes and carpet bombing kill anyone left alive. Across the Atlantic, the crew of the USS John F. Kennedy risks a catastrophic reactor meltdown to get out of the path of a ten-mile-wide tide of the dead; while, onshore at the Naval Air Base, Wesley's tiny team maintains a lonely vigil - which turns horrifyingly dangerous as the edge of the storm hits, pushing desperate civilians ahead of it. In the air above, Gunnery Sergeant Fick leads a hand-picked fire-team of spec-ops Marines halfway across North America to take and defend an airfield on a remote island - but learns to his cost that it is a place with a terrible history, and very dangerous secrets. Finally, out on Lake Michigan, Alpha team races toward extraction... but first must fight their most harrowing battle yet - this time against the living, who are both more treacherous and a hell of a lot better armed than the dead.Who will be left standing at the end? Find out - if your heart can take the strain - in the biggest and most explosive ARISEN book yet: ARISEN, BOOK FOUR - MAXIMUM VIOLENCE. No library descriptions found. |

However, I'm not liking the skipping between several different storylines in the book. Just as I'm getting interested in the current one, it stops and goes back to an earlier one. When that one had stopped, I was sorry the current one started. Each restart requires a complete reorientation to characters and backstory.
I could have done without the whole Canterbury storyline. It was OK, but that might have been better as a separate novella, since it had little to do with the other storylines. ( )
