Received as an ARC from Netgalley:
Did not know what to expect from this one going in, but I ended up having a great time. I really appreciated the GRIMDark setting that went through lengths to discuss the horrors of war, whilst still being an engaging action tale.
The plot revolves around a single area and the battle our main character finds himself trapped within, so you get a good microcosm of the world the book is set within. The fact that our main character spends so much of the book being literally dragged through the mud sets the tone really well and makes his rise to power more interesting when you understand his limitations.
The writing had plenty of genuine laughs and the use of zombies in this book were incredibly entertaining.
Excited to read more from this series in the future.
