Publisher's summary

Can’t fight the dead? Then run....

The dead are rising and violently attacking people on the streets of the UK. Driven by an insatiable hunger for flesh, they attack anyone who dares to go out.

Anna is trapped as the zombie apocalypse rages outside her front door. Desperate and alone, she must find a way to get to her children who are with her ex-partner. As Anna runs from the dead, she finds help from Rob and his 15-year-old brother, Jack, despite Rob’s better instincts. Together, they run the nightmare gauntlet that used to be their neighbourhood.

Run from the Dead is the first book in a zombie apocalypse series, following ordinary people trying to stay alive no matter what the cost. Battling the dead and humans alike, the people left must become somebody new. Someone prepared to do whatever it takes to live.

Anna must learn to survive this cruel new world, where the living can be just as terrifying as the dead.

A Zombie Horror Story

This was my first experience with Joanne Nundy's work and it was entertaining. It was a zombie horror story that was filled with spine-tingling moments and relentless action. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. Natalie Boyland's narration was great and kept my attention. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

Excellent zombie thriller!

I love a good zombie story and Run From The Dead Book 1 provided the introduction to a series that I intend on catching up on and following. From the very start as we are treated to the feelings of a person as they go through the transition from human to zombie to the action-packed chases of our heroes running from packs of zombies this story will keep you engaged and wanting more. Along with a very entertaining story, I was introduced to Natalie Boyland’s consummate narration skills. Natalie took a really good story and set it right into the excellent category. I received a review copy of the audiobook from the author and chose to provide this review.

A simple zombie novel.

Nothing about the story stood out to me that would make this a Great book. I found Anna to be pretty annoying for someone her age. The whole “school girl crush“, got old fast. For me, this book isn’t worth going on with the series.

Dashing good fun!

“Run from the Dead” was a blasting romp of post-apocalyptic zombie action mixed in with a splash of romance and a dash of parental heroism. A great start to a well-written, fast-paced survival series!

A Zombie Apocalypse Classic!!

Classic zombie apocalypse and a great read.
Run From The Dead is the first book in this series. Full of action, the story moved along quickly and kept you hooked till the end. Great audio narration, looking forward to more!

Strong female character.

I really liked the dynamic of mother wanting to get to her children. There’s good action and the story moves along at a good pace. It was a nice change up from some of the other zombie books I was reading. Easy five stars.

Mom kicking zombie butt

Mom fighting zombies to get to her kids. Runs into two brother, Now they are a team. I like all the characters. One of the brothers was in the service and knows how to fight. Great narrator! There is some romance.For you guys that just want blood and guts this maybe a little tame for you. I actually like Romantic zombie books. On to book 2.

if you cant fight, just run

The kind of story in this book is one of my favourites, with people with their heart in the right place, Anna just wants to protect her children, that when the book starts she is just taking to their father place since they are divorced, and it’s his week with the kids, and when TSHTF she just must go to them <3, our other main character Rob, he wants to protect his teen brother, Jack, and you know what, if you like Baileigh Higgins (apocalypse Z) and Maira dawn (Sanctuary aggression), you’ll definitely like this story, you have a strong woman as main character, she is saved a couple of times, but she is strong enough to do what she needs to do, there’s a bit of romance, but not too much that will distract you, there’s difficult choices, people being people and without spoilers, sometimes I really hate humans…

I was kindly provided with a free audible for the first volume by the author, there were sometimes that I was taken by surprise by sounds added to make the story come more alive XD ahhaha I actually screamed because of the sound of a car horn hahahha yeah sometimes I am quite weak but I like this kind of books and story, so its on me. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Zombies are awesome!!

I love the take on a zombie apocalypse. A different but wonderful take. Different, draws you in, makes you heart skip a beat. Grab it and give a listen. You’re welcome.
