Praise for Black Tide Rising: “…an entertaining batch of…action-packed tales. Certainly, fans of Ringo’s particular brand of action-adventure will be pleased.” —Booklist “This anthology broadens Ringo’s Black Tide world, serving up doses of humanity amid the ravenous afflicted. Comedy has a place in this harsh reality, and these stories stir adventure and emotion at a frantic clip throughout. Zombie fiction fans will be thrilled.” —Library Journal Praise for the Black Tide Rising Series: “Not only has Ringo found a mostly unexplored corner of the zombie landscape, he’s using the zombie frame to tackle a broader theme: the collapse and rebirth of civilization. The zombie scenes are exciting, sure, but it’s the human story that keeps us involved. A fine series.” —Booklist Praise for Under a Graveyard Sky: “Ringo combines humor and horror in this strong series debut, the thinking reader’s zombie novel.” —Publishers Weekly Praise for John Ringo: “[Ringo’s work is] peopled with three-dimensional characters and spiced with personal drama as well as tactical finesse.” —Library Journal “…Explosive.…fans…will appreciate Ringo’s lively narrative and flavorful characters.” —Publishers Weekly “…practically impossible not to read in one sitting…exceedingly impressive…executed with skill, verve, and wit.” —Booklist “Crackerjack storytelling.” —Starlog
