Spec Ops Z cover

Handsome re-issue of a high-octane military-SF, as Russian Spetsnaz commandos are turned into zombies in ‘80s New York.

Vadim Scorlenski and his Spetsnaz squad are sent to New York at the height of the Cold War for a ‘training exercise’ that proves all too real when the 'practice' weapon they're carrying detonates, triggering a zombie plague that spreads across the earth. Somehow holding onto their identities, Scorlenski and his zombie commandos set out for revenge.When Vadim Scorlenski and his elite Spetznaz squad are sent to New York at the height of the Cold War, they’re told it’s a ‘training exercise.’ They discover, too late, that the ‘practice’ chemical weapon they’re carrying is all too real. They go to their deaths...

...and awaken to a city overwhelmed by the walking dead, even now spreading across the globe. Somehow holding onto their identities amid the mindless monsters, Scorlenski and his squad of zombie commandos set out to return to Russia.

Someone’s going to pay.
