Picking up where The First Days ends, Fighting to Survive features the further zombie-killing, civilization-saving adventures of a pair of sexy, kick butt heroines and the men who love them. A hundred or so survivors of the zombie plague have found tenuous safety in the walled off center of a small Texas town. Now the hard work of survival begins—finding enough food; creating safe, weather-resistant shelter; establishing laws; and fighting off both the undead who want to eat them and the living bandits who want to rob and kill them.

Fighting to Survive won the Dead Letter Award for Best Novel from Mail Order Zombie. The first book in the As the World Dies trilogy, The First Days also won the Dead Letter Award and was named one of the Best Zombie Books of the Decade by the Harrisburg Book Examiner. Tor Books began bringing this series to a wider audience with the Spring 2011 publication of The First Days.

--Harrisburg Book Examiner, “Best Zombie Books of the Decade”

Action packed and was successful where the first book didn't ! I only finally finished the first out of stubborness over spending money on it.

Just like the first book I just couldn't put it down. Even though there are a ton of zombie novels it is good to always find a genuine classic every time. ...more

The beginning was a little slow since she was recapping some of what happened in the first book but once you got past that it was great. I can't wait to read the third book. ...more
