Thicker than Blood Thicker than Blood

Publisher Description

A true friendship never dies.

Leisel and Evelyn lost everything. Husbands. Families. Friends. Lives that made sense. All they had left was each other, and a friendship that could withstand anything… Even an apocalypse.

Until one fateful night, the marginal safety they’d come to rely on comes to a vicious and brutal end. With the help of Alex & Jami, both unlikely allies, Leisel and Evelyn are able to escape their shattered sanctuary only to find themselves face-to-face with a much altered, much crueler life where they have to find the way—and the will—to stay alive in a world they no longer recognize.

Traveling across a broken and infection-ridden country; the road-weary group are pitted against endless violence, improbable circumstances, and the ultimate loss.

Everything comes at a price—especially safety, the cost of which could very well strip them of the one thing they’ve tried so hard to cling to: their humanity.

Yet along with all the trials they’re forced to endure, there’s also hope in the form of love. Having loved Leisel from afar, Alex attempts to put the pieces of her fractured heart back together.

But in such a savage world, is there room for love?

In a place of nightmares-made-reality, where the living should be feared far more than the dead, an unbreakable friendship and a love amongst all odds can mean the difference between life and death.

There are friends…

And then there are Leisel and Evelyn.

Thicker Than Blood

I really don't know how to review this, I don't want to give anything away.
Incredible writing, incredible world building, incredible characterisation. I was there, right in the story.
I read on the edge of my seat, totally fascinated.
Co written by Madeline Sheehan, who I'm familiar with her awesome gritty biker series, I knew it wasn't going to be an easy ride.
Clair C Reilly as a horror writer, is new to me, but I'm aware her zombie Odium series is much loved.
I couldn't pick which author contributed what, the writing was absolutely flawless and flowed immaculately.
I was intrigued with the flip that the zombies didn't really scare me, the surviving humans were much more dangerous and evil.
I am wrecked, emotionally strung. There is joy, sexiness and love, There is also sadness. This book is hard at times, but real. Its raw & gritty and sometimes graphic - yet I continued to read in fascination.
An amazing women's story of survival, where best friends are soul mates. They survive for each other.

Yet this story ends with Hope, I finished with a huge 'Yes!!' And a smile on my face.
I actually really can't wait for the next instalment!!
