About this ebook

“The third time’s the charm with even more adventure—and gore—as the Rot & Ruin series continues” (Kirkus Reviews).

Reeling from the devastation of Dust & Decay, Benny Imura and his friends plunge deep into the zombie-infested wastelands of the great Rot & Ruin. Benny, Nix, Lilah, and Chong journey through a fierce wilderness that was once America, searching for the jet they saw in the skies months ago. If that jet exists then humanity itself must have survived…somewhere. Finding it is their best hope for having a future and a life worth living.

But the Ruin is far more dangerous than any of them can imagine. Fierce animals hunt them. They come face to face with a death cult. And then there’s the zombies—swarms of them coming from the east, devouring everything in their paths. And these zoms are different. Faster, smarter, and infinitely more dangerous. Has the zombie plague mutated, or is there something far more sinister behind this new invasion of the living dead?

One thing Benny and his companions can’t afford to forget: In the great Rot & Ruin, everything wants to kill you.

Ratings and reviews

I'm a 28 yr old mother of 5 who has spent countless hours comforting children & telling them there's nothing to be afraid of. This series makes it hard to check their closets for monsters without showing some serious nerves. I love having the books online because then i can read them in the dark. (As long as my husband is in bed next to me!!)

Action packed and fast paced,got right into the story.Had me memorized and on the edge of my seat,pretty much from the very beginning.One of the best zombie books I've read,I really loved it..

Just when I started to think that World War Z was the last great zombie book I would ever read I found this series and now I think I like it more then World War Z if you're a zombie fan of suggest this series
