Resumen del Editor

A mother’s love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity, it dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stand in its path.

Amelia Bell is thrust into every mother’s worst nightmare. She has a child who is fatally ill and no one knows of a vaccine that will cure him. Her son was one of the first infected with the virus that changed life and the world as we know it. Her son transformed into a monster with a ravenous appetite for human flesh. Believing he will become healthier if she feeds him what he craves, she enlists the help of her alter ego “Mrs. Kim” to provide what he desires.

Mrs. Kim is first introduced in the novel Winter’s Salvation. Both stories take place simultaneously, and it is not necessary to listen to one before the other.

Excellent Story!

I received this audio book for free in exchange for my honest review. This is a fantastic twist on the zombie story. Both the writing and narration are excellent. You won't be disappointed with this one.

Stellar Writing

Jason Deyo shows pure genius in his writing, I enjoyed his first offering, loved this one even more and I cannot wait for his future works. Mrs. Kim kept me on the edge of my seat waiting for what was ahead in the next paragraph!

A lot of action packed into 5 hours!

This was my first read from this author. At first I thought it was going to be just like all of the other zombie stories. I was, however, pleased to find that was not the case. I feel like much of the story was rushed and would have liked more details and more elaborate sequencing. Sometimes I felt like there were gaps in the storytelling, but this can’t always be avoided in such a short piece. I would definitely be interested in reading the other pieces highlighting other characters’ points of view.

The narration was good. There were times where it seemed like the narrator was bored, but those times were balanced with other times that held great energy. The character voices were easily distinguishable and I always knew who was speaking at all times. I would definitely listen to another audiobook read by this narrator.

Absolutely gripping!!

This was definitely a good story. I enjoyed every bit of it. Now I need to check out Winter’s Salvation.

Definitely a new type of zombie book!

This is way different than your run of the mill zombie book. I honestly am not how much I enjoyed it. It is a good story, an original story, an that alone is hard to find. I found myself wondering what the heck was going on a lot of the time. Narration was okay. I think this is worth a shot if you enjoy zombie books and want something new!

Can we really know someone? How they will react

One can never be sure what lurks beneath the surface of the conscious mind. A mother is in a state of denial, blinded by the love she has for her son. The estrangement she has for her husband is starting to wane. He is a good provider and she is starting to see him the way she did when they were first married. Only he wants the two of them to leave and find a safe haven. She doesn’t understand what is wrong with him, why would he even entertain the thought of leaving their son behind. How dare he.
How do you think you do, dealing with adversity? Do we really, fully understand to what lengths our subconscious mind will go to protect our conscious, delicate psyche?
This was a fast paced book, that should appeal to a broad group of readers. It makes you wonder what you might do if someone like Amelia was someone you loved and wanted to get them to safety. Could you handle her? Reason with her? Would you leave them?
This was an enjoyable story that touches the darkness in all of humankind.
The Narrator did a great job at bringing the story alive. The Author did a great job of making us both love and hate the main character. It is more than "Just another Zombie survival story", it causes us to look at the raw condition of mankind. He causes us to ask, "What would I do in her or her Husband's shoes?"

Different zombie story

Mrs. Kim is an excellent story that kept me riveted from the beginning. While there are zombies in it, the main character is the mother of a boy who becomes infected with the disease that is turning people into zombies. The narration and audio production quality is excellent .

I was given this audiobook in exchange for a voluntary review.

The author must be somewhat twisted.

I enjoyed it, but beware that the book is a little racy and a bit gory. Definitely not a book for children. This really would make a good netflix original.

Dramatic

Another great book by this author! The plot thickens as the story is told. There are parts that make a person cringe. Lots of zombie action in this book. Not like some that you have very little zombie action. The narrator is amazing! She really makes the characters come to life... well unlife. I am from the deep south and her accent was right on for Ga. I despise fake southern accents because they are done horribly. she pulled it off very well though. Her voice changed with each character and it was believable. The author did a great job with foreshadowing just when you think you know what is gonna happen it flips. Great book to add to your collection.

awesome book

I loved the book. great writing and kept me captivated. Jason is a very talented writer
