    Nothing stays dead for long. The dead are returning to life, intelligent, determined...and very hungry. Trapped by the undead, escape seems impossible for Jim Thurmond. But Jim’s young son is alive and in dire peril hundreds of miles away. Despite overwhelming odds, Jim vows to find him—or die trying. Joined by an elderly preacher, a guilt-ridden scientist, and a determined ex-prostitute, Jim embarks on a cross-country rescue mission.

    Chris says: "You'll either love it or hate it. I love it!"
    "Story's good, don't like the narrator."

    Story

    I think the narrator has let this story down, and I'd love to hear it read by somebody else. He mispronounces many words, and can't seem to settle on the pronunciation of a few others, changing from one sentence to the next. I didn't like the inflection he used in a lot of the dialogue, either; kinda made some of the characters sound like idiots, and stereotyped.
    As a horror story it does quite well, and I'm sure it'd be great with a different person reading it.
