Publisher's summary

SOLO: Northwest is Book I in the SOLO series, chronicling one man's through-hike of the apocalypse.

Off-the-grid and unaware. A descent into a surreal world. A non-stop fight to survive…

Under investigation for a police shooting, Officer Val Slaine seeks seclusion and anonymity through-hiking California's Pacific Crest Trail. While off-the-grid, Val hikes into a sleepy Northern California town and discovers a viral outbreak has quickly taken over the world. Infected human killers now mercilessly hunt down the uninfected, and civilization has already descended into chaos. Val's journey to the Northern California coastline is turned into a violent battleground, where his resolve to make his way home is put to the test.

The story isn't too bad

I'm not a big fan of virtual voice, simply because I'd rather support a true narrator. It's not that bad, but it lacks the inflections and emotions that you get with a real narrator. The story itself is pretty good. It's not big on zombie action, but there is some. It's a bit desolate and lonely at times. I did stay interested in what the character was doing and what was happening with him. There are a lot of books that I start and just can't finish because the story didn't keep me in it. This is not one of those books. This book is good enough that I will have to check out the author to see what else he's got.

Not bad

I wish the protagonist 's thinking was much less we did not need to know every single thought and movement. Otherwise I liked it. Looking forward to the next one.
