Oh my goodness another sleepless night I'm so knackered but wow what a ride. Ive been a fan of Mark Tufo since I discovered Zombie Fallout and Ive read all 6 books so far; since then Ive been hooked. So I couldn't wait to to try Lycan Fallout. I wasn't sure if Mark could pull off werewolves taking over the world as good as his Zombie Fallout series BUT Ohhh...my goodness...yes he can; he has done it again with an incredible start to this new series...I'm..so sorry to even doubt you Mark....ZF is amazing ride of Talbot jokes and sarcasm; great lines and character mentions reaching back into Zombie Fallout history. This is book 1 of a brand new series and is a stand alone book in itself; but I do feel if you read Zombie Fallout series up to date first; you will understand and appreciate this book so much more.Set 150 yrs after Zombie Fallout we watch as Mike's devastation of outliving his family is almost too hard to bear. But good old Tommy has watched over him and finally brings him something to break his depression...Oggie. Yes its another Henry and its what he needs to get back back ontrack.....Yay to Oggie!I love how Mark has skillfully intertwined Zombie Fallout characters and its history as Azile returns; Ive missed her since ZF 6 so its fab shes back and Tommy as they convince Mike they need him to help them save the world...from another horrific threat....AGAIN! The Lycans are bigger and fiercer than werewolves, deadly more brutal and cruel than zombies, but don't worry the zombies are not all gone.....Whats left of the human population are scattered across the lands gradually trying to rebuild their lives with new towns...eeking out a new existence with whatever they can. So with a witch and 2 vampires....well 1 vampire (Tommy) and half a vamp (Mike); plus some brilliant new characters which I'm sure we will all grow to love as much...join forces to fight and survive if they can this new horror. Mike Talbot with his incredible rugged charm and sarcasm just cannot keep his mouth shut to stay out of trouble and I love it. Who would find the only pub in the future and get into a fight...well they started on the Oggie didnt they...no on epicks on Mikes dog EVER! Its a good job Tommy keeps an eye on him. Macdonalds even lives on in the future but not as you know it lol...and we also learn what starts Mike into writing these journals. I have to say Mike Talbot is one of my alltime favorite characters from any book or film Ive ever read...yes Ive said it...its a big claim but its so very true. Mark creates believable characters, that are engaging and make us care about them like they were our best friends. Its a truly compelling, fast paced plot which made me laugh outloud and then cry real tears; that doesn't happen often...sheesh...I'm gutted!When you get to know the characters they are real to us and it brings out every emotion; so now I'm on tender-hooks for Lycan Fallout 2...hurry...!!! Mark Tufo has written so many awesome zombie books, and I think that he nailed it with the Lycans & Werewolves as well.It's sad how things have turned out for Mike Talbot 100 years after the zombie apocalypse, and if you've read any of the Zombie Fallout books you've probably grown as attached to the character as I have. I hated that his family and friends were all gone and he didn't have anyone to keep him going anymore... but that doesn't keep him down for long. It's Mike, he can't mope around forever!There's still a few familiar faces in this story from the Zombie Fallout series, but that doesn't mean that they're going to live to see the end of this chilling new war. The new characters throughought the entire story are just as great as the old ones, and although Xavier is no Eliza, he is damn near close. This was a great story, and I definitely recommend it! Way to go Tufo!
