The Turning (The Salvation Plague book 1) By A.L. Masters has great humor, in the style of Jim and Pam in The Office one-liners, action, scary monsters, brave regular folks, and a spooky story. Looking forward to reading Book 2.

Quick read that grabs your interest and keeps going. Great characters with a bit of twist on the zombies. Humor, romance and plenty of gore too boot. Check it out!

Great characters. Great action. One of the best zombie books I have read. It isn't like most of the books in this genre that I have read and that makes me so happy!!!!

I liked the feel of this storyline. The only issue I had with it was the fact that Jarod was bite but never addressed. I'm assuming you don't become infected by bites, but I guess I'll find out by reading the rest of the series... I'm off to do that now.

4.0 out of 5 stars Unique Take on Zombie-styled Apocalyptic Fiction
Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2022

I enjoyed the world building, the characters and the action. This is a good beginning for a potentially fascinating series.
I'm definitely going to continue, with the hopes that the choppy feel of the chapters will smooth out.

Whether you like this or not will depend on your expectations. It starts as zombie book light. There is great character development and a lot of snark. It doesn’t start out intense but builds. I like that the female lead is strong. It has a few moments of real humor which might not be your thing. If you want serious, intense, horrific, no chance of smiling, this isn’t for you. That’s not to say that it doesn’t get intense and gruesome, but it’s not just that. This was definitely to my taste.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unique apopcolyptic story
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2022

I have read all but the last book in this series and can say that I've read a lot of books on the subject. I found the entire series fresh. It's told from several views and is scary as hell! It is at times funny, frightening and shocking at times., it has quite the spin on a subject that has been flooded with bad books. Of course it's fantasy but I came to care for each character. I needed a break from the series but I do look forward to the next one in the series to see what happens next!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good.
Reviewed in Canada on August 8, 2022

Liked the zombie story, not the love one, though. Personal taste, but I really hate love stories. In my own opinion, it doesn't have a legitimate place in a zombie novel when it's too omnipresent (and, boy! I was annoyed by the fast promiscuity of the characters)! You bet that if I'm with somebody that call me babe (or shows jealousy), in the first week, that person will be kicked in orbit!

Thoroughly enjoying this series, love the characters and want to see what happens to them next, I have purchased the next two books and will have to force myself to sleep before reading them.
