Eric and Gabe have been holed up in their Appalachian mountain retreat for 2 years, fending off the zombies and watching their supplies diminish. This Shattered Land takes them across America to rejoin the resurgent US Government in Colorado.
Somehow I forgot about this series. I loved No Easy Hope and meant to revisit it. Cook's attention to detail is fantastic but not burdensome, as some military themed zombie fiction can be. In This Shattered Land Cook really develops the characters, doing an impressive job at keeping them realistic and relatable.
The story doesn't have a lot of surprises, in zombieland, but the added nuclear winter does keep things fresh. As I fell behind, there are already several more books published in the series and I have some catching up to do.
