A single bite is all it takes.
During the Outbreak, like billions of others, a man finds himself infected with the Phage. Desperate to spare his family from watching him become a walking nightmare, he flees. Soon after, he is dead.
Two years later, he wakes up.
Not in the afterlife, but in his own body. Trapped, unable to control the monster that carries him, and forced to witness the horror of its existence.
A hundred miles away, Sergeant Ethan Thompson thinks he has seen the worst the apocalypse has to offer.
He is wrong. Following the trail of a dying madman, he will embark on a journey of vengeance that will test the limits of his sanity. Along the way, he will learn that there is no justice at the end of the world. There is only the living and the dead, and in between, there is The Passenger.

Thoroughly enjoyed "The Passenger" by James Cook! There are actually two stories in one within this book; one follows Ethan and his squad of soldiers from Ft. Bragg as they patrol the wasteland - seeking out and eliminating zombies, the other is told through the eyes of a male zombie, dead and roaming for two years, after his brain suddenly regains consciousness within a deteriorating walking corpse.Survivors of the Apocalypse have established forts across the frontier, growing their own food and taking advantage of the sun for power. Zombies are few and far in between and seldom pose a threat throughout the area. Each camp had established a leadership, developed and trained a militia and built defensive perimeters to protect the inhabitants from attacks by the undead. They are trying to make a life for themselves, trade routes were opened between the camps and designated, well-stocked rest areas established to accommodate those who are taking the risk to travel between these locations. A sheriff and deputies also travel on horseback through this wasteland to ensure the safety of these camps and their inhabitants.
It isn't long before the patrol of soldiers is ambushed by armed marauders on horseback. The soldiers have known about these groups, who were attacking these small settlements, killing or enslaving the inhabitants and then taking all the supplies for themselves. Eventually, the sheriff and deputies are captured after one of these firefights by the military soldiers who suspect them to be marauders - they're soon cleared when Ft. Bragg vouches for them. There is a major concern when a string of three settlements along the group of outposts goes "dark" and can't be reached. The two groups join forces and head out to investigate.
Meanwhile, a horde of zombies, comprised of thousands of decomposing bodies - one of which has a brain that came back to life, roam through the wasteland seeking food. Mr. live brain learns that he is unable to control or impact any of the "auto-pilot" signals directing his body; he's a prisoner or "passenger" along for the ride. The horde has travelled long distances and growing in size - becoming an unstoppable force. They are moving with a purpose and periodically get rewarded with fresh bodies to feast upon. Are they organized with a leader at the helm? What's driving them across the frontier? Eventually, Mr. live brain and the infantry sergeant meet and experience a rare moment of communication!
This is a difficult book to put down and will keep readers on the edge. Highly recommended! I've also read Mr. Cooks "Surviving the Dead" series and enjoyed them immensely! Great work all the way around!

The Passenger A Surviving the Dead Novel (Audible Audio Edition) James N Cook Joshua Guess Jordan Leigh JN Cook Entertainment LLC Books Reviews
The story line is unique and incorporates a character or two from the excellently written Surviving series. However, this is not the next installment of the Surviving series. The Passenger is more of a side story with a specific purpose to bring the reader into the smaller daily details that comprise the larger story.
The writing is excellent. The story is strong with excellent editing. The story flows smoothly and character development is very good. James Cook is an excellent writer and he was able to collaborate with Joshua Guess and bring another talented writer to the attention of readers.
Utilizing the view of one of the undead ghouls creates an interesting twist and makes The Passenger stand out among the glut of zombie fiction books. I would highly recommend this book to others interested in zombie fiction.
As a newer fan of both authors of this story, I am found myself notably impressed throughout the book with both authors, the story's main fabric, and the acme that was achieved in the perfected balance in its character building. If your a fan of the zombie/apocalyptic genre, you will not be disappointed; this story is a smooth read, written well and exacted in details that are not executed with dreadful overkill, as many zombie stories tend to be in my opinion. Another very great thing about this story was just that - it didn't ever have a point that dragged on too much or cut the reader short in experience - all in all, it was just a nicely written, well assembled book with a fresh twist on the perception we might hold of the walking dead, and living human beings as well.
NOTE This story actually tells the tale of THREE(not just TWO)extremely different characters, plotted in a very strange dynamic with one another from beginning to end - a quite satisfying overall experience for me. I would definitely recommend this book to the reader looking for something exciting, surreal, emotional, sobering, and revitalizing to read.
Great Job Guys!
I enjoy both these authors, so I was anticipating enjoying this book. I am not dissatisfied.
This story is two in one. You get a zombie eye point of view, and the survivor point of view. There is also the madman antagonist. Can't forget him.
While there is combat this book is a must for zombie fans who enjoy a look into the minds of the actors in the story. While some of the minor characters may seem a bit unfinished I believe that is because there are three main psyches that are being laid open for examination. The main zombie, who's thoughts are really disturbing when you really examine them...I would hate to be him, the young solider , who is not only trying to survive, but also retain his humanity in a world gone mad, and finally a frightening look into the mind of someone who has just embraced all of the darkness inside. Three different reactions and the paths trod.
I enjoyed the peek into these minds, though at times it was disturbing.
Loved it!
First, the interesting apocalyptic tale, another which shows that humans tend to be the worst monsters. Second, the fascinating insight into the zombies themselves. This was particularly interesting for me personally as I'm a voice artist and the first audiobook I voiced was Cattle by Joseph Duncan, one in a loosely connected zombie series and at the point where some of the zombies had regained their intellect.
The two authors here work well together and I shall be reading more from each.
Recommended.
