Death Walk

A Short Story

De: Micah Ackerman

Narrado por: Fred Wolinsky

Death Walk is a new twist on the zombie story combining the original concept of zombification with today's flesh craving ghouls. The New York Times featured this story in "Sunday-Read-Around" and called it the best short story since Stephen King's The Long Walk.

Scott is devastated when his wife is horrifically struck and killed by a car on their Caribbean honeymoon. In desperation, he gives into his grief and listens to a mysterious suggestion from a morgue janitor that he could have his wife "cured of death". Against all of his reservations and common sense, he feels he has nothing left to lose, but what he finds is that there are unnatural things worse than death.

Death Walk

This is a interesting but somewhat disturbing short story. Scott is devastated after his wife is killed on their honeymoon and finds out that yes, he will do anything to bring her back, despite the fact that he is repeatedly warned she will not be the same.

This was a creepy but good short story that was well written. If you are lucky enough to get the audio narrated by Fred Wolinsky than you are really lucky, with his voices for all the characters it just ups the stories creep factor that much more.

Quick listen

This is a very quick listen that is great if you are looking for something to listen to on a lunch hour or a workout. it is a pretty predictable book, but still worth a listen. If you want a story that has a lot of depth to it, this is not it. It is definitely a short story without a lot of details or depth, but it clearly has a beginning, middle, and end to it.

The narrator, Fred Wolinsky, does an excellent job with this book. He has so many different voices and brings the story to life!
