'Ex-Heroes' A Recommendation

Ex-Heroes is the first in a series of fantasy books that combines the zombie apocalypse and superheroes. Inspired by comic books and horror movies the series is an amalgamation of allusions and influence that come together to create something unique and engaging.

Fast paced and action-packed the books utilize a non-linear plot structure jumping back and forth from past to present providing exposition and maintaining brisk narrative progress. The books also provide compelling character development for its group of heroes rotating through their perspectives in alternating chapters.

The problems that face the heroes are, of course, supervillains, but also the administrative issues facing a survivors community and their various basic needs- food, water, and safety. These two conflicts weave together in each book to evoke a degree of reality that serves the already entertaining framework of the story.

Ex-Heroes is followed by Ex-Patriots, Ex-Communication, Ex-Purgatory and the recent Ex-Isle. All worthy fun reads for the genre fan.
