BLURB:

Scitech Labs was handsomely commissioned by the United States Military to design a revolutionary serum that would create the ultimate soldier.  If successful, the soldier would have an increase in endurance, strength, awareness and overall speed. They would become the true super soldier. That's if everything went according to plan. 

 Scitech put its best scientists on the project and gave them a time limit to complete the job or else. With the pressure on and the stakes high, Vincent Masterson and his team put everything they had into the project. . Everything was looking hopeful until an experiment went horribly wrong. The scientists mutated their specimen's DNA, turning it into something monstrous. Now, life as we know it will never be the same. 

   As it stands, the only thing that can save them is one of the two things they should be running from. 

  Can the human race survive being caught in a bloody war between two vicious predators?

{Book Review} "Defend Yourself in a Zombie Apocalypse" by Sean Ramey

Book Description:

Sean Ramey's "Defend Yourself (In A Zombie Apocalypse)" is a follow-up to his much-lauded "Defend Yourself (No Experience Necessary)." Ramey's intention for his newest book is to equip the living with the necessary unarmed combat skills to fight the dead. A U.S.A. Martial Arts Hall of Famer, Ramey's goal is to arm individuals with the necessary skills to survive if faced in a life-threatening situation with the living or dead, using only hand-to-hand combat. The book is limited to a few simple-but-effective techniques that can be implemented when needed.

An individual have only one chance to save his or her life. This opportunity should not be squandered. The more Ramey's "Defend Yourself" techniques are practiced and used, the more effective they will become. Remember: life is no movie — you have only one take to get it right. Learn the techniques. Understand the techniques. Implement when necessary.

"Survivor Roundup" by Angela Scott {Book Review}

BLURB:

Red always knew she would have to face the man who nearly destroyed her. She just didn’t figure it would happen so soon . . .

With the plague sweeping across the nation, destroying many and turning others into walking corpses, survivors head West in search of a chosen land, a place designed to keep the infected out, while sealing survivors inside. In theory, the idea seems the only way to keep humanity alive. In practice, it doesn’t matter whether a person is on the inside or the out—there is no humanity.

. . . And even though John Gatherum hunted her down and instigated their reunion, Red’s no longer the passive girl he once manipulated. This time, she has a hidden agenda of her own.

Kill him. Save her family. Save herself.

"Wanted: Dead or Undead" by Angela Scott {Review & Giveaway - Ends 12/10}

Welcome to My Cozie Corner's stop on the

"Wanted: Dead or Undead" book tour.

This tour is brought to you by Innovative Book Tours.

BLURB:

Trace Monroe doesn't believe in luck. He never has. But when a fiery-headed cowgirl saunters through the saloon doors, wielding shotguns and a know-how for killing the living dead, he believes he just may be the luckiest man alive.

Trace wants to join Red's posse, but she prefers to work alone--less messy that way. In order to become her traveling companion, Trace has to agree to her terms: no names, no questions, and if he gets bit, he can't beg for mercy when she severs his brain stem.

He agrees, knowing only that Red is the sharpest shooter he's ever encountered. The fact she's stunning hasn't escaped his attention either.

What he doesn't know, is that Red has a very good reason to be on top of her game. She not only has the answer for how they can all outlive the plague taking over the wild, wild west, she IS the answer.

But even with well-armed trackers, things go wrong and Wisteria ends up alone facing certain death, until she is rescued by the mysterious Bach. Uninfected, Bach is able to survive among the hordes of living dead.

Eighteen year old Bach, from a race known as The Family, has no interest in human affairs. He was sent here to complete his Great Walk and return home as a man—as a Sen Son. The Family regard humans as Dirt People, but Bach is drawn to this Terran girl, whom he has never seen before, but somehow knows. 

Hunted by flesh eaters, cannibals, and the mysterious blood thirsty group called Red Phoenix, Wisteria and Bach make their way back to the Isle of Smythe, a community built on secrets and lies.
