Safe Haven - Realm of the Raiders

Book 2 of the Post-Apocalyptic Zombie Horror Series

By: Christopher Artinian

Narrated by: Kim Bretton

What will you do to save your family when the zombie apocalypse starts? Because Mike Fletcher will do anything, and that's his greatest weapon.

From the multi-award-winning author Christopher Artinian comes the second book of the post-apocalyptic zombie series, Safe Haven.

A virus has swept across the planet turning people into flesh-craving zombies. The UK and Ireland were the last to fall, but now the virus has won. Cities are infested with the undead. To stay is to die.

Having fled Leeds, Mike Fletcher and his family thought they had found a safe haven in the island village of Candleton. But their peace was fleeting, and others want what they have. Now, they find themselves in a fresh fight for their lives, battling armies of vicious raiders and fast, relentless zombies.

Horror and tyranny reign in this new world, and a war is looming on the horizon that only the bravest will choose to fight. The time has come to take a stand. The time has come to find a new kind of hero.

Fantastic book

Action packed couldn’t stop listening. So I listened to book again. Lots of Action strong and sweet at same time. Now waiting on safe haven 3!!!!!!!!!!

Great Continuation

Thus is a great story written byba talented author. Even a change in vocal talent doesn't detract. What happens now that they think their safe? Cant wait to find out.

RAM's and Villains

When you read a lot of books in a certain genre, you come to expect certain things in that genre. In books about a zombie apocalypse, here are a few of those:

A main character that rises above anyone's expectations and becomes a Kickass hero/heroine
An evil group (often military) that has its own agenda, often working against the survivors
At least a little romantic interest
Deaths of a few characters that the reader has come to know and care about (which makes you cry and want to strangle the author!)
Plenty of descriptions of zombie battles, gore, blood and rotten flesh

And, I have to say, "Safe Haven: Realm of the Raiders" has all of these elements!

This book picks up where the first installment ends as we continue to follow Mike & his extended family in their quest to reach their Gran's place in Scotland. Along the way, we have villains, love, loads of emotion and, of course, ZOMBIES!

Mr. Artinian is a great writer and he really keeps the action going with this one. Loads of great characters, tons of gore and zombie killings. There is a lot of emotion in this book as well.....family comes first, no matter what. You just don't leave anybody behind that you consider family! As Mike says, "There are different kinds of strength and having the strength to admit your grief is just as important as having the strength to fight for your family."

And, the main villain in this book has to be one of the most hateful people I have encountered in a zompoc book. I can't wait to see him meet his well-deserved end!

Since I had previously read the ebook version, I wasn't sure how much I would enjoy listening to the same book. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved the second time around! In fact, I think I enjoyed the listen more than my first reading. Kim Bretton does an amazing job in narrating this book. Her pacing is perfect and the different accents/voices she uses adds a lot to the listener's enjoyment.

I was given the chance to listen to the audiobook version of this book by the author and chose to review it.

Loved It!

I loooove Safe Haven - Realm of the Raiders: Book 2 by Christopher Artinian! It's everything you could ask a book to be. It's full of suspense, horror, a little romance, heart-pumping and hold your breath goodness and ingenious ways to take on your enemies. I will never use my blender again without thinking of this book. Thank you Chris for another great story and to Kim Bretton for bringing it to life! Really looking forward to Book 3!
