A Safe Place to Die

Wrack and Ruin, Book 2

By: Otto Schafer

Narrated by: A.J Carter

In a world where the sky bleeds infection and the dead refuse to die, will having each other be enough?

A parasite-carrying asteroid has unleashed a zombie plague upon the world, forcing nurse Zoe McCallister to flee her overrun neighborhood with her badly injured husband Oliver, their dog Louie, and Jurnee, the little girl Oliver rescued from a burning vehicle. Following the plan she and Oliver made, Zoe seeks refuge for them in an abandoned church some fifteen miles away.

But safety proves elusive as the crimson contagion bears down, forcing Zoe to make a difficult choice—a choice that could bring terrible consequences.

When Oliver wakes up, he has nothing but pain and questions: Where is he? How did he get here? Where is Zoe? Little Jurnee only has a few answers, and he doesn’t like any of them.

Melding pulse-pounding zombie action with complex characters and wrenching moral dilemmas, A Safe Place to Die launches a gripping new vision of the undead apocalypse. Perfect for fans of The Walking Dead or World War Z, and for anyone who has wondered if they could survive when the dead rise.

4.5 stars

This is a high octane, action packed dystopian thriller with a great plot to go with it.

Outstanding

I’ll be honest, when I first seen this author post on TikTok I didn’t know what to think. I said what the heck and gave it a chance. SO GLAD I DID. Great story that picked up right off from book 1. This was a great addition to the story! Really hoping for a book 3! 5/5

Excellent action and emotional scenes.

Loved the roller coaster ride of this book. Very exciting and a great new take on the zombie genre.

I couldnt stop after book 1

I had to come into book two the story is that dang good! awesome writing and the narration LET ME TELL YOU fantastic!

Mr Schafer has done it again.

Let me preface this by stating that I am a die hard fan of the zombie genre. This series is one I wasn't to sure about after only reading the synopsis of book one. Well, let me tell you something, Wrack and Ruin is amazing! Simply put, these books are some of the best I have read in the genre, hands down. I wasn't sure if the author could beat book one, it was so good! However, as the title states, Mr Schafer has done it again. Gripping action, fantastic character development and great pacing all have fused together to form this amazing amalgamation of a novel. Hats off to you Otto Schafer. you have earned a life long reader.
