by Christopher Artinian (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 1,075 ratings
What will you do to save your family when the zombie apocalypse starts? Because Mike Fletcher will do anything, and that's his greatest weapon.

From the multi-award-winning author Christopher Artinian, comes the second book of the post-apocalyptic zombie series people are calling, "Gripping", "fast paced and full of action", "very realistic", "captivating", "inventive", and "emotional".

SAFE HAVEN: REALM OF THE RAIDERS

A virus has swept across the planet turning people into flesh-craving zombies. The UK and Ireland were the last to fall, but now the virus has won. Cities are infested with the undead. To stay is to die.

Having fled Leeds, Mike Fletcher and his family thought they had found a safe haven in the island village of Candleton. But their peace was fleeting and others want what they have. Now they find themselves in a fresh fight for their lives; battling armies of vicious raiders and fast, relentless zombies.

Horror and tyranny reign in this new world and a war is looming on the horizon that only the bravest will choose to fight. The time has come to take a stand. The time has come to find a new kind of hero.

About the Author

Christopher Artinian was born and raised in Leeds, West Yorkshire. Wanting to escape life in a big city and concentrate more on working to live than living to work, he moved to the Outer Hebrides in the north-west of Scotland in 2004, and has lived there ever since with his wife and dogs.

He released his debut novel, Safe Haven: Rise ofthe Rams in February 2017. This was the first instalment of a post-apocalyptic zombie trilogy. Book two, Safe Haven: Realm of the Raiders continues the fast moving and often terrifying story and book three, Reap of the Righteous concludes the first chapter in the gripping saga. With a new Safe Haven story in production, fans can rest assured that Mike and his family are going to be around for some time to come.
 
In October 2017, he won the prestigious Zombie Book of the Month Award for Rise of the RAMs. In December 2017 he was also awarded with the prestigious, "Best New Author" award by the Reanimated Writers group. In addition, Safe Haven won the "Best Series" award in the popular GMZ poll.

For fans of the Safe Haven books, a stand alone short story featuring one of the main Safe Haven characters was published as part of an anthology (Undead Worlds). Christopher was also featured in the Treasured Chests anthology and another of his stories, "Condemned" was released in the Zombie Road anthology.

    Good story and a bunch of twists and turns that keep it interesting. The humanness of the characters make it extremely profound and the juxtaposition between the inhumanity of the RAMS and the “humans” creates a fascinating tableau and makes one wonder how would I fare on these situations.

    I'm enjoying this series. I dont know how many books there are but I'm all in now. There‘s a lot of loses but some deserved what they got. This book took us on an emotional rollercoaster because things kept happening (good and bad) I especially like that once I finish a book, the next one is already written and waiting to be read.

    Mike and his family has finally made it to his Gran's house in Scotland. The plans to fortify have been lost in the pleasure of living a somewhat normal life. Will complacency be the downfall of the group. Great characters with plenty of action keeps this book moving along at a great pace. I highly recommend this book for fans of the genre.

    I was on the edge of my seat throughout this book. There was no room to breathe. The story unfolds rapidly and consistently caused me to whisper "behind you". The bad guys are really bad and I hope that they receive what they deserve. As for Mike and his family, by blood as well as by the journey that brought them together, I pray they find a good place.

    A brilliant second book in the Safe Haven zombie series. The main character, Mike, is one of a kind and he makes the book. The other characters are good and likeable or not depending on the part they play I’m sure the good ones will grow on me as the series moves on. The books so far are absolutely full of fighting the zombies or other groups and they are exciting, on the edge-of-your-seat page-turners right to the last page and the books do go to the 100% not 80% or 90%, they are great value for money and well worth reading.

    I found this second book even better than the first. I think this was because it could jump straight into the action and built on the established relationships and personalities grounded in the first book. I'm really enjoying the whole black and white versus the shades of grey on moral decision making and on the interesting dynamic (that is sure to unfold further) regarding those who embrace the black for black reasons. There are several very confronting, hard to forget and edge of seat moments in this book.

    Another edge of your seat page-turner that follows Mike and his group on a desperate dash for safety.
    Get ready to meet some really nasty villains as well as familiar characters.
    Full marks for inventive use of local council vehicles, too.
    Great read, bring on the next instalment.
