Story
Before the lights went out, Jack Warrant never considered himself a prepper. That was someone on the edge, a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday cultist who had a fatalistic view of the world. He was neither a theorist nor a cultist. He was an optimist. At least that was what he told himself when the darker thoughts creeped into his psyche as he stared at the ceiling in the middle of the night. Whenever he started down the rabbit hole, he always clawed his way back into the sunlight.

In the wake of the cataclysmic events that reshaped our world in 2020, a sense of relief washed over us all. By late 2023, I think we were ready to just live life again. I know I was. It was a time to make new friends and put the past to rest. Rayne and I hadn’t known each other long, but we were building a solid friendship, nothing more. It was our common interests that sent us on vacation together to my remote cabin. What we didn’t, couldn’t know, was that we were on a collision course with the end of the world as we knew it.

Editorial reviews
A conscience is a terrible thing to waste.
Steppenwolf Company and Chicago Shakespeare Theater veteran Scott Aiello performs the initial work in the Clayfield series, featuring a reasonable man - the director of a nonprofit museum in a small Kentucky town - trying to survive insanely unreasonable times. The virus that was once a small blip of foreign news exploded into a global pandemic invading even his small corner of the world. To survive, he must transform from a soft, sensitive man who cares about killing even those forms that threaten his life into a hardened murderer ready to take what he needs, wherever he finds it, and suppress any shreds of decency left that might work against keeping him alive.
Publisher's summary
On a cold February day in the small town of Clayfield, Kentucky, an unsuspecting and unprepared museum director finds himself in the middle of hell on earth. A pandemic is spreading around the globe, and it’s turning most of the residents of Clayfield into murderous zombies. Having no safe haven to which he can flee, the director decides to stick it out near his hometown and wait for the government to send help.
But the disease and those infected are not his only concerns. He must also contend with armed gangs, strife within his group, his own lack of skills… and his conscience.
There are tough decisions to be made if he is to survive. But if he is smart - and a little lucky - he can do more than survive; he can live like a king.

When the pandemic hit, nobody was expecting it to be as bad as it was. The economy barely survived the lockdowns, but it staggered along until civil unrest shattered people’s hope of better times to come. With it being an election year, more and more Americans were waking up to the idea that they truly were behind the curve. The hope was if they did not get sick, run out of money, or could avoid violent mobs, they would be fine.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Characters I hated
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
The characters would have had to be much better written. This book started out with so much promise, but ended in major disappointment. The premise was great, however, the written needed to do much more with character development.
What was most disappointing about Shane Gregory’s story?
The wooden characters, the lack of common sense and the general pathetic reactions of the characters to many of the different aspects of what happened to them.
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
The narration was fine, his voice was good and I had no objections to him. It's just unfortunate that the story didn't work.
What character would you cut from The King of Clayfield?
I think there were many characters that weren't necessary. The story just had too many holes in it.
Any additional comments?
I'm sure there's a sequel... I'll pass.

Just too mant stupid characters
Would you try another book from Shane Gregory and/or Scott Aiello?
No, it was not the writing style. It was the lack of characters acting in a way consistent with the situations they are in.
Has The King of Clayfield turned you off from other books in this genre?
No, the end of the world can be interesting but spending it with really dumb survivors is even worst than the end of the world.

Standard zombie fare
No really new ground covered here, as the vanilla protagonist is drawn into an apocalyptic scenario that gives the author a convenient backdrop to talk about things like guns, generators, food storage, etc -- your basic prepper porn.
That said, I didn't hate it. The characters weren't totally obnoxious, and displayed only limited amounts of the standard clinically-detached worldview that you'll see in all books of this ilk, i.e., "I know that everyone i love was just murdered or died of a virus, but right now I'm really concerned with telling you the make and model of all the guns I have and what their ballistic characteristics are..."
Anyway, if you're looking at this one, I doubt that it's your first zombie book. You know what you're in for. This book sticks to the formula, for better or worse.

Poor Writing, Poor Narration
I've listened to many zombie books but I was shocked at how simplistic and flat out corny this one is. I persevered but just cannot finish it. Pass this one by - there's too many other reasonable to good stories out there in this genre. A very amateur production.

zombies, what zombies?
What disappointed you about The King of Clayfield?
Not much zombie action. More boring, detailed, not important narration.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Don't know
What didn’t you like about Scott Aiello’s performance?
Soothing voice. Probably not a good zombie reader.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
It went know where pretty fast. That could be good or bad.
Any additional comments?
Don't know what the great reviews were about. I'm going to try and return it.

been down this road many times before
I came across this book after reading a review from a source I have found many hidden gems from in the past. So I was expecting a good zombie story. King of Clayfield didn't quite live up to my expectations.
I wont go into the plot here. Nothing is new. The characters reacted to events and with each other in predictable fashion. I felt the author Shane Gregory is either unimaginative or lazy. Sappy romance, cheesy zombies, and Walking Dead style politics.
