Zombies on the Block

Zombies on the Block Series, Book 1

By: Mike Evans

Narrated by: Tristan Morris

Length: 4 hrs and 36 mins

Publisher's summary

When the flu season struck America, it impaired the population, crippling what the collected power of the people were capable of doing to fight the outbreak. Unfortunately, it was not the same for everyone. There were three types of people. The first had no diseases, the second had the flu, and the third were busy fostering a zombie virus that was going to bring the nation to its knees.

This story isn't about heroes, there are no guarantees. This is a story about Mike and his family, and what they have to endure to survive. If they want to see another day, they are going to need the help of their neighbors and friends.

The situations leaving the main characters in the depths of hell are only outweighed by the comical situations that they get put in. There's no telling what or who is going to survive. Those that survive must fight or take flight and in some cases do both. Civilization will be something new when dawn's light falls on the Earth for the second day of the apocalypse.

excellent

Really enjoyed this first book in the Zombie on the Block series! On to the next one right now.

Another great one!

This book drags you in from the very beginning! A great take on the zombie apocalypse, and of course leaves you wanting more!

Great read!!!

The story line was really interesting, the characters had good background stories, the author did a great job. I’ve read 100’s of zombie stories and I feel as though this series (at least the first book) is a series I definitely want to read. Great job on the story Mike Evans and narration had superb inflect, good tone. I can’t wait to go to book 2 in the series!!

Not bad.

I can tell that this story is written by a amateur zombie writer. However, with that being said. It’s still turned out to be a pretty good read. There were some funny moments that I truly enjoyed, and Diane and Danny were by far my favorite characters. Will definitely be going on to book 2.

Amateur writing

This author has a bad habit of using the exact same wording multiple times in 2-3 consecutive sentence. There’s one part where the words “so he could see again” was in 3 sentences in a row. And the use of words such as “literally” are used far too often. The story line is ok but the writing is amateur.

Didn’t love it, didn’t hate it.

There was enough interest for me to move on to the next book. I am invested in the outcome of some of the characters. It seems that nobody has last names, it is odd to hear very young children calling there adult neighbors and bus driver by their first name. The second issue is some of dialogue between characters. These people are in life and death peril, but they talk like they are at a coffee shop.

Mediocre at best

There’s a lot of unnecessary dialog taking place in the middle of critical action. So much so you have to wonder how all the time charActers are chatting, why they zombies aren’t on them before they get away. Except for that the story line isn’t bad. Will get the next in the series when I have nothing else to read.

great story but..

it can drag at times due to pointless dialogue when in the moment feels like the characters are talking to much for the chaotic situation they are in

My favorite series from Mike Evans

What to do when you are sick as hell and you end up with all the cul-de-sacs kids at your house due to the bus driver turning. Parents all out trying to make it back to their kids. Who will last the day with Zombies on the Block? Narrator was OK, but sounded like Captain Kirk on Star Trek.

Love it!

Such an amazing book! Love me, some zombies and mayhem. Started this book randomly, and absolutely moving onto the next one.
