   [Top Post] The first book's protagonist starts in the Southwest, rising step by step from an infantry platoon to an army group, and then to the Central Plains War Zone. When other armies are struggling to survive, he dispatches hundreds of thousands of troops to launch a provincial-level recapture campaign. It gets more and more exciting as it goes on!

    I can’t recommend this book enough! It’s an absolute must-read!!! This zombie novel is fantastic. If you don’t like it, come after me! The military and the whole nation fight back, with no superpowers, a large cast, and action galore. Highly, highly recommended! First, this is about the nation fighting off zombies. The variety of weapons and tactics used to defend the homeland makes for a thoroughly satisfying read. The characters are vividly drawn, making it easy to put yourself in their shoes. There’s none of the brainless, nonsensical plot you find in so many novels. The zombie setup is also different from what you usually see in zombie fiction. It’s similar to an ant colony: there aren’t any zombies with individually overwhelming strength, but when they gather, they operate like a colony, with their own way of surviving. The characters don’t have superpowers, either. The story focuses on the army defending the homeland against hordes of zombies, and it’s absolutely gripping. I don’t usually follow many books, but this one is easily a standout in the zombie genre. I look forward to every update. It’s still being updated and doesn’t have many chapters yet, but it’s definitely a great book. Just look at how many people are reading it and you’ll understand. Highly, highly recommended!
