“The Survivalist may be the best post-apocalyptic series out there,” raves Steve Erwood of the Disaster Preparedness Blog. “In addition to a steady stream of gunfights with zombie-like mutants, roadway bandits, and opportunistic warlords, the books teach dozens of useful survival tricks. Learn to hotwire cars, construct homemade booby traps, build garbage-powered generators, and retrieve fuel … from abandoned gas pumps.”
Bryan Foster, author of The Prepper’s Handbook, says “It’s rare to find books this entertaining that are so well researched.” Nicholas Sansbury Smith, author of Extinction Horizon, adds “The Survivalist books are incredibly addictive. They create a cool western vibe not seen since Louis L’Amour’s timeless classics.”
Frontier Justice is the first book in a series described as “a cross between Justified and The Walking Dead.” The Superpox-99 virus has wiped out nearly the entire human race. Governments have collapsed. Cities have become graveyards filled with unspeakable horror. People have resorted to scavenging from the dead, or taking from the living. The entire industrialized world has become a wasteland of abandoned cars, decaying bodies, and feral animals.
To stay alive, U.S. Deputy Marshal Mason Raines must forage for food, water, and gasoline while outgunning those who seek to take advantage of the apocalyptic anarchy. Together with his giant Irish wolfhound, Bowie, he aligns with survivors of the town of Boone in a life and death struggle against a gang of violent criminals. With each deadly encounter, Mason is forced to accept his place as one of the nation’s few remaining lawmen. In a world now populated by escaped convicts, paranoid mutants, and government hit squads, his only hope to save the townspeople is to enforce his own brand of frontier justice.
Authored by renowned disaster preparedness expert, Dr. Arthur Bradley, Frontier Justice is “the start of a great apocalyptic saga.”

I loved the whole series. I really liked the addition of the canine companion
This is a great series of books if you are at all interested in the survivalist action genre. The book has two surprising duos working the problem of surviving a massive plague induced collapse of civilization. This book hooked me and the following books in the series kept me hooked.
We loved this book and couldn’t put it down.
the whole series is amazing
Very good read
I enjoyed the story. Got hooked and will read the entire series
a different take on zombies, not another walking dead book
Great book
The survival genre is by definition dark and depressing. The author does find humor among the ashes and creates interesting characters. What I find frustrating with the genre in general is how shallow it is. Anyone intending to rebuild from an apocalypse knows the first things you need are books about facts; so chemistry, biology, farming, optics, …
This is one of a series. Stands well alone but you may want to continue with the next, and the next.
Enjoyed the story and characters but also learned some valuable lessons.
Very good idea of what mankind would face in starting over. What are the best/worst mankind characteristics are given to various book characters by the author. Can anything be accomplished? Need to get the book to find out if progress to rebuild is possible or not.
I would recommend all the books in this series
This was the first book in a long while I couldn’t get enough time to read what happens next. Great characters put in bad situations that need grit and moxy to survive. Finally, characters that can read a situation and react in order to clear away the bad to protect the good. In a world gone lawless it reverts to only the strong, smart, and …
Very few women and they are treated horribly. Apocalypse happens and half the population disappears, except for a few victims. Just not realistic.
I really liked this book. Like a lot of people that have left a review, I learned some survival tricks along the way. I really enjoyed the characters, especially the relationship with Tanner and Samantha. It was amusing to read them banter back and forth.
I started this series about a month ago and am on book 6 now. Great reads with tidbits of actual information. Not always realistic, but still a good read.
A good story. A nice break from all the stuff I have to read.
Sure, it is another post apocalypse story, but the characters are good, and the author does give solid survival tips. I recommend it. The books are not long, so you needn’t dedicate a ton of time to them unless you are planning on reading them back to back to back. I look forward to reading the second book.
I enjoyed the first few books in this series. Then the story line became absurd, sophmoric….so I quit reading the series. Also, they are more like “episodes” than books. I really don’t like this new trend among new authors. Is it to garner more money? Or is it because they lose their thread of thought easily? I have no idea, but it is …
