And The Blood Ran Black Review

And the Blood Ran Black

By Nathan E. Harvey

And the Blood Ran Black by [Nathan E Harvey]
Two brothers are thrust into a reality that makes them yearn for their years of deployment overseas. There were no news tickers or conspiracy theories to soften the sudden reality; the two soldiers witnessed the beginning of the end firsthand. Where would you go? Who would you save? This is the account of a small group of strangers who become family in order to somehow carry on against impossible odds.

Finally, there’s a zombie book that doesn’t have to rely on shock value and gore to elicit an emotional response. Between bouts of laughter and of tears, “And the Blood Ran Black” will have you forgetting to breathe while it unapologetically grabs you by the eyeballs.

MY REVIEW OF And the Blood Ran Black

Brothers John and Moto were fighting in the same squad overseas, when they were imprisoned by underground boxing mobsters. That’s when they discover experimental procedures were being done on people, essentially turning them into zombies. The brothers escape and make their way back to the United States for safety, and to prepare for the worse. They quickly discover the zombie virus has spread worldwide. As they search for a safe refuge, they add more people to their ragtag group. But, of course, they lose a few too.


If you like The Walking Dead, you will enjoy this story line. Almost always in these types of stories, there is an instigator, or a troublemaker. I’m glad to say that there were none. They were all likeable people. I don’t believe the story suffered for it either. I was scared for the group and feared any of them could be the next to go. After becoming so invested in each one, it was heartbreaking to imagine the next one to go. I was hoping they would all make it to the end of the book, but with this type of story, it is inevitable that some won’t make it. The twist at the end was unexpected, but welcomed.
