Anoxic Zone Series



This is a forward-looking story about two men, who live a rehearsed existence of life and death, until one day life took on one less death and everything changed. Suddenly thrust into a world of horror and blood, a sphere of greed and gore, these two guys figure it out, not really sure that they want to!

But with what they’ve learned and what they now know, they can change the future of the earth. From the Hawaiian Islands to the Black Sea, this story takes you on a wild bloody ride, complete with impaling!

What are people saying about this book:

“Anoxic Zone is a fresh, original story that grabs you from the beginning and keeps your interest throughout.”

“This is not your average vampire novel. For those of you that are tired of the Twilight genre turning vampires into sparkly watered down versions of themselves, this book is for you. I read this in one day, could not put it down!”

“This book combines so many different genres that it could please anyone!! The writing flows easily and makes it an easy read.” 

With such great things being said about 'Anoxic Zone,' it is no wonder why author John G. Rees followed it up with:


This book, Halocline, begins as a torturous quest for survival and independence once again washes up on the shores of Romania. Over a thousand years ago a war was fought on the sands of the coast. Good did not win. But the winds of change are blowing and the Roma will have to go through hell all over again if they are to keep the right to live. Jake must decide whether to save himself or a people from a fate worse than death. Kismet once again makes the choice. Who's to say which is the better? The risks are great and the cost his soul. The battle will be on two fronts with Megacorp and limitless greed on one side and the malevolence of a madman on the other. As Jake says, 'it's like being between a rock and a rock.' And it would be nice if it were all that simple. But it is not and Jake will have to confront the evil within himself when it gets tight if they are to prevail. For Jake this is no small task. And the odds are overwhelming. A halocline occurs when fresh water mixes with salt water. A perfect example exists in the Black Sea. The result is a blurry translucent miasma, which makes it difficult to see things in perspective. In our novel the halocline phenomena is a metaphor. All is not as it appears and is ever in flux. Past and present, good and evil, domination and independence, hatred and love, dreams and reality commingle creating a halocline of life that is nearly impossible to navigate or ever forget.

I think this says all you need to know about this book:

“Again John has left me breathless!!! He has woven his magic and given vampires back their bite! Loved it and really enjoyed it so much! I await more from John, he is an immensely talented and creative writer.”

“It's a bloody ride!”

“The story feels like a real adventure from start to finish. You feel like you've watched a wild 2 or 3 hour movie by the end and feel satisfied.” 

The bloody ride doesn't end there...


Would Megacorp want
            YOU
        as a Reuseable??
       Are you that valuable?
   Within the pages of BLACK TIDE john g rees takes us on a journey back with this freaquel to anoxic zone and Halocline, back in time to the beginning for Jake Strom. We meet Jake before his recruitment as a ‘Reuseable’ becomes the only alternative, death everlasting. Megacorp, who controlled most of this near future world, was taking men like Jake with their knowledge in their hands and heads. Siphoning off the skills they wanted to keep the planet running, Megacorp turned the rest of the population into domesticated consumers; this consumer mentality came at a cost. The virtual world was scarfing up everyone. No one wanted to be or to do anything anymore, outside the box that is. We had begun living a virtual existence. Unfortunately all the apps in the world can’t fix a leaky pipe or a broken ship.

    Diver, dope smuggler, junkie, killer on demand and a life that just will not end. It’s not the way it started or the way he wanted it to be. Things just kind of worked out that way for Jake.

    Hang on for another macabre ride as Jake comes to terms, sort of, with what he has become while he does the bidding of men whose minds are twisted with greed.

This about sums it up:

"The third book in a trilogy, BLACK TIDE... is also a cautionary tale about what can happen if we don't appreciate and care for the natural world around us.  I highly recommend all three of John G. Rees' books as they bring a refreshing twist on the standard vampire tale." 

All three books are available at: 


They are also available at Black Water Books, where you can find more reviews, learn about author John G. Rees, and even read some of the chapters!
