Extinction Horizon by Nicholas Sansbury Smith


Smith’s goal was to address the zombie genre with a rational explanation for zombies to exist.  He accomplished his goal, dismayingly well as there is a certain plausibility in his explanation.  The infected in this story, zombies by any other definition, are a result of governmental malfeasance.   It isn’t too  far-fetched to suspect government malfeasance when on a daily  basis the news is full of government treachery, both here and abroad.

I missed  this series when it first appeared and am only catching up with the  reprint.  A team of special  ops labeled the Ghosts and a government scientist are the main characters.  Smith does not hesitate to clear the table so don’t get too terribly involved with any particular characters.  

The plot of societal extinction is leaved with plenty of action and human interest.
I enjoyed the book and recommend it. 


This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
