Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

The Valley of Shadows by John Ringo and Mike Massa


This is actually a prequel to an excellent series about a zombie apocalypse. The Smith family is introduced and their background is provided to explain many of the following books. In this instance is the political interplay of all the parties in New York City at the advent of the zombie apocalypse.
The authors do a nice job illustrating the inability of people in political positions to play well with others. We aren't currently in a zombie apocalypse but the interplay between bodies of government and elected officials with the public has some similarities to a zombie apocalypse.

Having read a substantial part of the previous books which actually take place after this book I really enjoyed finding out the motivations of the characters and how they became who they were in the later books.

You'll find plenty of action and entertainment regardless of whether you read any of the other books in the series and it read well as a stand-alone.


I enjoyed the book and recommended

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
