Publisher's summary

"One of the most thrilling writers working today. Miss him at your peril." (Blake Crouch, Wayward Pines)

Resurrection, Arize, Book 1

It begins with a long-dormant virus released from an archaeological dig in Northern Alaska.

A researcher studying the virus suffers a fever and launches into a bloody killing spree that ends with two police officers dead. A second researcher, Dr. Meg Perriman, has just flown home for the Easter holiday with her family in North Carolina, unknowingly carrying the virus. Within days, the infection spreads across the planet, sparking martial law, chaos, and widespread slaughter as many of the infected turn into flesh-eating zombies.

Meg and a few others appear to be immune, however, and the survivors gather in a megachurch called Promiseland that the US government has established as an emergency shelter. The Rev. Cameron Ingram, a charismatic televangelist the president has appointed as the “zombie czar”, believes the catastrophe is a sign of the Biblical apocalypse. When a rash of natural disasters accompany the outbreak and civilization breaks down, people turn to Ingram for salvation in the face of fear and despair.

But Meg and her group of friends soon discover Ingram is not what he appears, and they are caught between the devil and the living dead.

Scott Nicholson is the international bestselling author of more than 30 thrillers, including The Home, McFall, Liquid Fear, Speed Dating with the Dead, and the After and Next post-apocalyptic series. His books have appeared in the Kindle Top 100 more than a dozen times in five different countries. Look for Arize, Book 2: Revelation.

Too Preaching

I dont get why authors need to refer to scripture or political views while writing a book. It would have been a great story if he would have wrote about the zombies and less of how a Preacher becomes a man of power.

Beware the deaders ...

This is an exciting, action-packed read which gives alternating POVs so that the reader is treated to the perspectives of people from various walks of life.

Does a great job of prompting feelings, as it’s heart-wrenching several times over. The author did an amazing job of providing detailed visuals.

The science behind what’s causing corpses to re-animate remains vague in this version, but it works because the characters, while baffled, are busy trying to survive and chaos has erupted. Whether it’ll work for 2 more books remains to be seen, but this book has been fun enough that I’m going to stick around or at least one more.

Overall:
4 stars.

Audio:
The production itself is smooth, free of hiccups, high-quality.
The narrator isn’t great, but he isn’t bad per se. He just opted to more read like a robot, sounding, at times, like AI, rather than performing the book. 5-star production, 3-star narration.

Very cool zombie tale

As if a zombie apocalypse wasn't enough, imagine the country being run by a delusional, megalomaniac reverend!

Generic Story

Nothing new here. The story centers on a religious connection to the zombie apocalypse. Of course religion is the negative reaction to what is happening. It’s been done before. I like this author but I can’t recommend this book.

Good story, missed the mark

Typical Zombie story, great back story and character building. lost me when it got "preachy" would've been amazing without the bible verses and sermons. The ending got to muddled with too many "disasters" thrown in. Maybe it'll all work out if there is another book, but it didn't quite work.

Amazing listen for Friday the 13th

Welcome to the pandemic. It feels a bit too real thanks to the current circumstances.

Scott weaves a tale that leaves me wanting more, and is able to craft his story in ways that keep me engaged all the way through.

Kevin Clay does a solid job and I really want the next books in the series now! His tone really brings you into the desperation of the world around.

Politically Biased Author

Yet another author who can't seem to keep their politics to themselves. Its a zombie book, I read these books to get distracted from current events. The first few chapters contain veiled jabs at the then president, and a commentary on the plight of the undocumented worker. None of these topics add to the story, would have been better spent writing about the spread of the virus. I stopped reading at the point where a neighbor was described as someone who flies the American Flag, is pro 2nd Amendment and a prepper. Apparently according to the author, flying the US flag is for the unsophisticated.

Arize 1

A long dormant virus is released from the colds of Alaska and travels out as those in the research party go home and travel on breaks. One of the researchers suffers a fever than goes on a killing spree, as another felt like she had the flu for a couple of days but recovers. Within days the virus is everywhere and many many people are dying and infecting others, chaos is rampant and the military is trying to help along with a mega church minister who is prospering from it.

This is a good book if not a bit close to home at the moment. The narrator Kevin Clay does a wonderful job making you feel as though you are there and going through all of this with Dr. Perriman and her family. This is a refreshing look at zombies.
