The Purge of Babylon Series - Sam Sisavath:

#1 The Purge of Babylon
#2 The Gates of Byzantium


Quote
One night. That was all it took. Creatures that once lived in the shadows, hidden from humankind, have risen, spreading like a plague across the globe over the course of a single night. Their numbers growing exponentially through infection, these seemingly unkillable creatures have swallowed up whole cities and collapsed unprepared governments.

Survivors call it The Purge.

Against all odds, a disparate group of survivors has emerged from that blood-soaked night that devastated the planet and reduced humanity to an endangered species. Among the survivors are two ex-Army Rangers, a businesswoman, and a third-year medical student. But surviving The Purge was one thing - staying alive is another matter entirely.

An action-packed PA series, full of well-rounded characters and a chilling, somewhat more original than the usual zombies, monster horde. I went through books 1 and 2 in an evening, staying up till the wee hours to finish. I've already bought book 3 but am trying to read other books in between to make this last longer. <g> Delighted to see there at least 9 books in the series so far, though.

Athos: If you'd told us what you were doing, we might have been able to plan this properly.
Aramis: Yes, sorry.
Athos: No, no, by all means, let's keep things suicidal.
