Cade Grayson finds himself separated from his wife and daughter during a viral outbreak; between them are 3000 miles and millions of infected. Cade must form alliances and rely on his military training to run the gauntlet of undead, as well as the living.
He must leave Portland, Oregon to locate his family in South Carolina. Fifteen months after an honorable discharge the disillusioned former Tier-One operator travels east with his less than clean-cut neighbor and two neighbor kids.
Meanwhile, his wife Brook is forced to flee the familial home with daughter Raven in tow.
Humans bent on taking advantage of other humans are as much a threat as the newly risen walking corpses.
Incommunicado and desperate for any information about the outbreak’s spread, Cade must chart the right course on his trudge to reunite with his family.

    If you loved the Zombie mini-series on TV that is scheduled to return soon you will not be able to lay this down.

    TRUDGE held my attention for the complete danger filled trip. The excitement never slows and I kept reading past "lights out in the quarters" to determine what this soldiers skills were and could they help him to survive the Zombie mass attacks during his quest. I am hopeful that this author will bring forth a sequel to TRUDGE. I want more of this action!

    Fast paced read. A real page turner with lots of zombified tension.

    For the price I was expecting to get a novella. After reading the free portion that was available I realized that it was a full book. I recommend you take a chance. I was engrossed and couldn't wait to see how the characters fared. It is no Trudge to read!!!

    Highly Recommended

    Exciting and well written. I don't tend to write short summaries as it is far more important to me to know that the book is well written, plot is developed, characters are developed and have depth and there are few if any typos. This book is all of the above. I bought his second book and have already begun to read it. This is an excellent book within the zombie genre and one well worth reading. Great author!

    Good

    >> This is a pretty decent book in the genre. Fast paced and interesting. At times it feels a little...pandering? Cade is supposed to be this bad ass and seems to keep losing people around him- yet his untrained wife manages to escape every sticky situation she is in. It's zombie appocolypse people are gonna die or do stupid things but strains the credibility when trained special ops guys get killed and a bumbling nurse and her child slip away from every problem...Still, it is entertaining and worth reading.

    exciting!

    A well-written, exciting apocalypse story. A virus takes down the majority of the population, turning them into zombies. The good, the bad, and the ugly...all represented in this tale. I hope no one judges this book by the cover, which I was immediately put-off by. It just seemed to me like it was going to be a lame, typical zombie story. Its really way better. The protaganist is a well likeable guy with a mission to reunite with his family. He encounters some of the best and worst examples of humanity. Highly recommend and am definately getting the sequel.

    Wild ride.

    This is not your typical gore fest. Great action, story is easy to follow, yet keeps you guessing. Shawn Chesser pulls no punches while weaving this tale. A wild ride, very entertaining, fast paced and highly enjoyable. This is story 1 of a (so far) trilogy, and once you read this you will join the throng of "MOAR" zombies.
