Publisher's summary

A single bite is all it takes.

During the Outbreak, like billions of others, a man finds himself infected with the Phage. Desperate to spare his family from watching him become a walking nightmare, he flees. Soon after, he is dead.

Two years later, he wakes up.

Not in the afterlife, but in his own body. Trapped, unable to control the monster that carries him, and forced to witness the horror of its existence.

A hundred miles away, Sergeant Ethan Thompson thinks he has seen the worst the apocalypse has to offer.

He is wrong. Following the trail of a dying madman, he will embark on a journey of vengeance that will test the limits of his sanity. Along the way, he will learn that there is no justice at the end of the world. There is only the living and the dead, and in between, there is The Passenger.

Humanizing zombies

Any additional comments?

This book takes a different viewpoint from the usual zombie tale ... and it works. I came away wondering what was going on in the heads of all the other walking dead. I don't think that it would make for a stand alone series, but it is definitely worth this side trip.

Six hours for how much?

I'm not sure the storyline is worth it. Also seems funny to go so far out of the way not to use the 'zombie' word.

Pretty Gross

I have to say that the storyline in this audiobook was very graffic and gross. Lots of blood and sick plot. No thanks!

THE DAY SCRAPPED BY

You get the perspective of a Zombie, of a military grunt (way in the future, once the military and society in general have pretty much broken down.) and you get the perspective of a seventh grader. I was real disappointed in the Zombie, he had no control and was really just an observer of what his body was doing. If they could have made the Zombie more in control of his body, but have strong urges and the willingness to eat people this would have been so much better, something like Tufo's "Timothy". Although some gore was thrown in, for the most part, this sounded like a seventh grader wrote it. I got impatient after 8 chapters. I have been learning lately that just because a story has Zombies in it, does not make it exciting or interesting. You still need good writers.
