From Book 1: It was a flu season like no other. With the H1N1 virus running rampant throughout the country, people lined up in droves to try and attain one of the coveted vaccines. What was not known was the effect this largely untested, rushed to market, inoculation was to have on the unsuspecting throngs.
Within days, feverish folk throughout the country convulsed, collapsed, and died, only to be reborn. With a taste for brains, blood, and bodies, these modern-day zombies scoured the lands for their next meal. Overnight the country became a killing ground for the hordes of zombies that ravaged the land.
This is the story of Michael Talbot, his family, and his friends: a band of ordinary people trying to get by in extraordinary times. When disaster strikes, Mike, a self-proclaimed survivalist, does his best to ensure the safety and security of those he cares for.
Book one of the Zombie Fallout Trilogy follows our lead character at his self-deprecating, sarcastic best. What he encounters along the way leads him down a long dark road, always skirting the edge of insanity. Can he keep his family safe? Can he discover the secret behind Tommy’s powers? Can he save anyone from the zombie queen? Encircled in a seemingly safe haven called Little Turtle, Mike and his family, together with the remnants of a tattered community, must fight against a relentless, ruthless, unstoppable force. This last bastion of civilization has made its final stand. God help them all.
From Book 1: Our final reckoning; Earth’s introduction to the alien race we have always feared would find us.

Thousands of humans are suddenly transported to an enormous alien vessel where they are pitted against each other in gladiatorial death matches for the entertainment of a Master Race of reptilian monsters.
Those that are not worthy of battle are eaten.
Enter our unlikely hero, Michael Talbot, a college student taken hostage from Red Rocks. Through nerve, wit, and blind luck, he rises to the top of the Arena Match Rankings, scoring better accommodations and collecting prizes—human women given as “spoils” to the victor of each match.
Meanwhile, on Earth, the U.S. Government cautiously approaches the spacecraft orbiting Jupiter, hoping for a diplomatic solution. But Paul Ginson, Mike’s childhood friend, has other plans. He is building a militia, certain that an all-out alien invasion is the more likely outcome.
