      From the Bestselling author of 'Battle Earth'. War has raged between worlds for the last ten years, but for an experienced mercenary like Max Mason, there is money to be made. He has no allegiance to anyone but his own crew, 'The Maniacs', and will work for whoever pays him best.

But just as soon as they arrive, trouble finds them.

But when his thugs come for one of the young women of the town they go looking for fighters to solve their problem. Initially reluctant to help, Mason has a change of heart when the offer becomes one he can't refuse.

      Battle Earth VI
    • The sequel to the bestselling How to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse.How do you fight a zombie if you are armed with only a shovel and are being pursued down a street? How can you raise a body of like minded individuals to defend your territory or to expand during the Zompoc? What is the Zompoc and what is a zombie?This book was written to answer these questions and much more. Many books recommend particular weapon types but they are always described by those with no experience of these items. As well as providing information we think is important we also offer more specific advice and guidance based upon the many questions we received from the readers of our first book. In How to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse (HTSAZA) we covered all the key areas that would be of concern with regards to survival, basic combat and overall strategies for the apocalypse. Some of the most popular parts of the book were the sections on long term survival and on the specifics of weapons and tactics when fighting zombies. It was with these points in mind that we produced this new additional to the Zompoc library.
