Mark Tufo, author of the awesome (and surprisingly funny) ZOMBIE FALLOUT SERIES, reviews TOOTH AND NAIL, and writes: “Craig DiLouie spins a tense, fast paced story of a military team coming home from the Middle East to an even bigger nightmare on our own shores. The scenes are set up so that you feel as if you are running in the streets with the soldiers, heart-pounding, muscles straining, adrenaline pumping. TOOTH AND NAIL is a fantastic story in the zombie apocalypse genre and I found myself staying up way past my bedtime to read this modern day classic. Thank you for the wild ride!”
Mark’s a great writer and a cool guy, and I was happy to hear he enjoyed TOOTH AND NAIL. I loved ZOMBIE FALLOUT and I’m going to check out the next book in the series.
I’ll be selling and signing copies of THE KILLING FLOOR, THE INFECTION and TOOTH AND NAIL at HorrorHound September 7-9, 2012, joining other Permuted Press authors Timothy Long, Eloise Knapp and Jessica Meigs. The show looks like it’s going to be great, with some awesome celebrity guests including Michael Biehn, Casanda Peterson (Elvira), Lance Henrikson, Tom Savini, Linda Hamilton and others. Hope to see you there! Learn more about this convention

Matt Cowger of RevolutionSF reviews TOOTH AND NAIL and writes: “For fans of zombie and apocalyptic fiction, TOOTH AND NAIL is a must read … a grisly grind, and not for the squeamish. This is a merciless curb-stomp of a book.”
Heather Faville reviews TOOTH AND NAIL for Tony Schaab’s The G.O.R.E. Score, and calls it “a different kind of entertainment. It wasn’t like any zombie book I have ever read. It seemed so realistic … The characters were very well-written and balanced … Nearly every action scene was filled with enough description of the mess left behind to keep the imaginative juices flowing with visceral image.” Heather gave it an 8/10 for General Entertainment, 8/10 for Original Content, 10/10 for Realism, and 7/10 for Effects & Editing, resulting in an overall score of 8.25/10 and concluding, “This well-thought-out, fast-paced, gripping story is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. The intensity level starts out on a high and just keeps going up until the explosive end battle that just may make some readers reach down and pick their jaws up off the floor.” Thanks, Heather!
It was a real honor to find TOOTH AND NAIL ranked in a list of the top 10 zombie books of all time by Giant Fire Breathing Robot, a website for geeks about geeky movies, books, games. I found myself in great company with Jonathan Maberry (PATIENT ZERO), Max Brooks (WORLD WAR Z), J.L. Bourne (DAY BY DAY ARMAGEDDON) and Stephen King (CELL). Check it out
