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!

River of Night by John Ringo and Mike Massa


This is the eighth book in the Black Tide Rising series.  Smith, the SAS banker, needs to get to a safe haven.   He discovers a variety of obstacles.   This book details the trip.
Zombies appear to be the least of the problems in this book.   It appears that the post apocalypse world is fraught with successful sociopaths.  Smith and his crew face a ruthless leader who is cleansing an area of zombies and anyone who he sees as a threat to his dominance.   In addition, a demented bureaucrat is intent on forming a new society based on the worse values of political correctness.
As in all Ringo books there is a wealth of action.   The highlights of the book for me are the humanistic factors.  Loyalty, justice and hope are imbued throughout the book.  
I enjoyed the book although the action is best read earlier in the day as it does tend to get you fired up.

BLACK TIDE RISING SERIES:
Under a Graveyard Sky
To Sail a Darkling Sea
Islands of Rage and Hope
Strands of Sorrow
Black Tide Rising
The Valley of Shadows


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