Good ending to the series

This was one good series. Different. The characters are so interesting throughout. This apocalyptic tale has a very likable good guy, Wim, who’s just trying to do the right thing. Gotta say, as a reader of this genre, this was a worthy buy.

I really enjoyed the whole series.

This was well written, engaging and kept me vested in the characters until the very end. It was very graphic and gory at times with the descriptions of some things that occurred. Don't listen to this while eating! Well done and I will look for other books by this author.

wrapped up nicely

I really appreciated the ending. I didn't expect it, but I appreciated it. I'm probably going to be thinking on the last few chapters for a while actually. I wasn't able to judge the author's opinion on the belief aspect. He did a good job to include the duality of a person's actions--bad guys can do good things, good guys can do bad things. But also a person's overall moral compass not being abandoned even in the most dire circumstances while others use those circumstances to justify their actions.

Outstanding conclusion!

Great ending to a cleverly written zombie thriller series. Old enemies and friends cross paths and join and justice for a few are met. In the Red Runs the River, everything comes together perfectly.

Tony Urban wrote an exceptional story with a fast-paced thrilling plot and complex characters with layers and shades of grey to their personalities. I'm very happy that I had the chance to listen to this series. I've read and listened to many zombie apocalypse books by various authors. I've had both hits and misses. The Red Runs the River and the entire series was unquestionably a hit.

Crow did a superb job narrating this audiobook and portraying the characters' personalities. I'm very happy with his performance. Overall, Life of the Dead is a fantastic zombie series and I highly recommend it.

Excellent and entertaining zombie series!

I started this series with book two. I had not listened to book one, so it was a little hard for me to get into the story, but I'm glad I stuck with it. Once I got into the story I burned through listening to the rest of the series through book 5. I really loved the characters and scenarios they got involved with.

Great ending!

Best book of the series ended with a bang. A happy ending for some others sacrificed.
Great Job!

The End?

I have so dreaded the end of this series! Nonetheless it sneaked up on me unexpectedly, left me completely shocked and astounded, yet thoroughly satisfied. The narration was quite enjoyable and the story entertaining from start to finish. The only thing that would make it better is an encore!

Excellent!

I won’t give away amusing but this was AMAZING!

It was good to get back with the characters again and see them to the end.

I REALLY liked this entire series and am sad it ended!

Red Runs the River

Wow what a series! What an ending! I was hoping for something like this, yet did not expect how we got here. This is on my list of ones worth a second listen.

Boo— the other ones were better

The only redeeming factor in this book was literally the last 5 minutes. Just lazy and predictable writing. Want a kick ass zombie series? Get the sundown series by Courtney Konstantin. That series was excellent in so many ways!!
