Immortal Rising Scott a Mehlman

In Immortals Born, Franz Schlepke's creation was loosed upon the globe in his folly to save his wife. In a mere 30 days the world we once knew devolved into a planet filled with ravenous monsters, savage opportunists and those just struggling to understand what was happening. Things are not likely to get better any time soon. Oz and Owen Ritter have awakened from their three-day bout with the Immortal Virus feeling lucky that they are not the mindless zombies the virus normally produces. Their goal now is to find a more secure shelter and begin work on surviving in this new world that the Virus has wrought. Teenaged gamer, Brian Rooney, is likewise trying to figure out how to endure in a world where his family and friends are dead and he finds himself the protector of six-year-old Gino Palmeri. Ill-suited for being the real-life action hero he played in his video games, Brian does manage to save Gino's mother, Izzy, from certain death; but how can the three of them persevere in a world where death lurks around every corner? Don Murphy, though 73 years old, was capable and prepared to survive the pandemic and proved this by saving young Leslie from the zombies over-running her Bible camp. He begins teaching Leslie everything she'll need to know to live and thrive in a world in which zombies may not be the only things she needs to fear. Not all survivors of the Immortal Virus were created equal. Most became mindless zombies urged onward by a hunger that needs to be fed. Some were immune and do what they must to carry on after society has crumbled. And though the Virus has changed the world and everyone it has touched, there are a handful of survivors that are learning that the Virus is still in them doing exactly what it was created to do...
