Interpretation To Books Blood on the Sand (Z Plan #1)
Cale was sent to Iraq with the usual thoughts any Soldier going to war might have; being lonely away from his family, not wanting to take another human's life, and above all, the fear of never returning home. Although well trained, nothing could have prepared him for the horror he was about to face.Cale never thought the thing that could keep him from ever seeing his wife and daughter again would be a zombie apocalypse. As he and a handful of fellow Soldiers escape their base after a massive zombie attack, becoming deserters in order to survive, he begins the long and unexpected journey home through the harsh terrain of the desert; a barren landscape now swarming with not only undead cannibals, but also the enemy he was originally sent to fight.
The newly formed group plans to travel west, find a boat and maybe, with a bit of luck, make it back to America. Cale is tested beyond his imagination and brought to the brink of insanity as he loses friends while fighting the flesh eating masses. He risks his life for weeks, focused on holding his wife and daughter in his arms again. It seems all hope is lost when he finds himself alone and adrift at sea ... but is hope really lost?
Inspired by my experiences as a U.S. Army Soldier in Iraq, BLOOD ON THE SAND delves into the idea of not just surviving a zombie apocalypse but making the seemingly impossible trek home. It is the first book in the Z PLAN series.

Not going to be dishonest or anything. I am totally biased because I am Mikhails wife. But I couldn't have a goodreads profile without adding his book. I've read it through many times, and I can honestly say that I love it. But don't let my review sway you either way. Read it for yourself and leave a HONEST review. We appreciate everyone who takes the time to read this book.Good start. Disclaimer: I won this book in a competition.Cale starts off as a bit of a limp character, who seems to not want to be in the army and doesn't even want to fire a gun, but he does toughen up as the book goes on, as he tries to get home to his wife and baby daughter.It is evident that Mr Lerma was in the military from a lot of the terminology, which is important when writing about situations such as this.I have subtracted one star because there are too many instances of very little
I love zombies, so I was excited to get a chance to review this, especially since it was already on my tbr list.I've often wondered what I would do if the ZA happened while I wasn't home but I never thought about being on the other side of the world. That's what happens to Cale while stationed in Israel. His base is attacked days after hearing about a strand of rabies in Africa. With leadership gone Cale and his best friend Zach along with some others decide its better to risk going AWOL.I like
Cale finds himself in Iraq as the zombie apocalypse descends upon him. With a communications blackout, his entire army barracks has no idea of the horrors that are about to attack.This appears to be a growing trend these days, soldiers and former soldiers writing about the end of the world. Often these books tend to have a strong alpha male / super soldier lead. Cale is not that guy, he just wants to drive his truck, do his time and go home to his loving wife and little girl. When Cale finally
Blood on the Sand by Mikhail LermaSoldier Cale is sent to Iraq, he wants nothing more than to go home to his wife and daughter. He never expected a zombie apocalypse. He and a few of his fellow soldiers decide it is best to desert, and try to "fight the zombies" and head back home. But he has no idea what he is about to endure, and if he will make it home alive.A very original (zombie) story. I liked the blending of war with zombies attacking. Not only is Cale in danger of zombies, he is in
I initially purchased this novel because this is a young, new goodreads author, who asked members to read his book, and quite frankly, he hooked me with an innocent request and an engaging smile on his goodreads profile. His marketing worked, he wrote in genres I like, zombies & post-apocalyptic fiction, although I have felt lately that I had overdosed on zombie novels.What a treat! Although slow at first, I was rapidly won over, and I'm glad I stuck with the book. Halfway through, I
