Dead: Reclamation

By: TW Brown

Narrated by: Andrew McFerrin

Length: 9 hrs and 23 mins

Publisher's Summary

Years have passed since the dead rose and wiped out most of the living. Many survivors have gathered in pockets around the world. Some are bent on trying to restore what once was, others have a mind to create something new and better from the ashes of civilization, and then there are those who thrive in the hellish chaos of lawlessness.

While the undead currently roam the world in herds that can often stretch for miles and number in the millions, the zombies are no longer the biggest threat to humanity's continued existence. That distinction has returned to mankind.

Those who are immune to the zombie infection are now either reviled or revered. Some have become human biological weapons while others are seen as the last hope for the continued existence of the human race. They are a symbol of hope to some...fear to others.

Almost back to Great and Glory Ends in Horrible Disaster

From almost great story to complete bomb

This story was bring back the series to its glory it was becoming a great book until and hour before the end.. The author absolutely bombed this book. Kevin's crew was the best story of the series. The Geeks and the Author completely destroyed the book and ruined the whole series for me.. First he destroyed the relationships and even when you accepted that. He brought you to a point where you were holding your breath for a great rescue but failed the readers.. And nuked not just the book but the series.. Sad thing I bought book 11 and have no desire at all to read it.. No longer a fan of the Author.. Flat out horrible.. And the Juan story with Mckenzie made no sense at all. Keeping a soon to be zombie dog next to your kids when it's about to die and turn and not binding it's mouth made no sense.. The Author ran out of things to write and instead of ending in great glory he bombed it.. Flat waste of 8 books for me. Time I can not get back. Erin a leader and bad villain.... Come on!!! That tops the cake of the nonsense.

Sad

I am so sad that Kevin died I don't know if I want to read this series any more now that Kevin is gone and Steve's dead they were my favorite. Billy is stuck at the camp so his story is boring now. Tala story is kinda OK but I just miss the original leaders .

love this series

disappointed that it will end soon. Saddened by the losses but it is the apocalypse. great story that has developed the characters so well

Great Zombie Series

Loved it! Just wanted it to be longer like the others in this series. should be at least 10 hours.

NOOOOOOoooooo....!! lol

Darn you, TW Brown! I've never before felt so much love and hate for an author, in the same split-second reaction, than I have with this installment. Masterfully done, sir! Amazing narration, per usual! It's really interesting to come back to everyone after such a time jump from the previous volume; Keep up the great work! And thanks!!

Game of Dead

Spoiler alert! Your favorite characters will eventually die. Another great story that leaves the reader pissed, sad, and eager. The writing makes you feel each loss and not want to attach yourself to a character just like the characters themselves feel about each other.

Wow!!!

This story left me feeling some type of way! It was good by all means l, but I'm just sad! It's 10 years later. So without giving anything away, THIS BOOK IS A MUST READ! This book keeps getting better and better! The only thing that I didn't like is that it wasn't long enough for me.

This series just continues to deliver

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Andrew McFerrin continues to be a fantastic narrator. I just love this series, and cannot rave enough about it! On to the next one!

the reading was good but story line getting worse

the reading was good but story line getting worse with book missing two many parts

Everyone dies

Would you try another book from TW Brown and/or Andrew McFerrin?

No.

Has Dead: Reclamation turned you off from other books in this genre?

No but I am done with this series

What about Andrew McFerrin’s performance did you like?

He is good?

What character would you cut from Dead: Reclamation?

Kevin was the only character that made it interesting and we killed him to.

Any additional comments?

I enjoy zombie books but not if its just everyone dies whats the point. Why do we have to kill every hero? I want to hear how the smart guy survives against all odds.

no more if this rubbish

theres no point in a story if you kill off every significant character. what's the point, I decided to come this far because I wanted to see the happy ending but no for some reason this author likes to kill off people for no reason. SPOILERS kevin would never have been stupid enough to just go walking into a camp of people he knows will kill him and his pregnant girlfriend, but because it would lead to his demise this author decided to ignore his entire character and personality. dont bother to read this series it has boring characters and kills off good ones.

Really enjoyed this book series

I enjoyed this series, TW decided to keep it to 12 books which is a shame as it felt like there was a lot more these storylines could have given us. He doesn’t shy away from the horror of what could happen doesn’t go too far into realms you don’t want to wander into (like the Zombie Fallout series by Tufo) and he wasn't afraid to kill people off when their time was done.

I'm enjoying the children storyline, different and original. Although a real consitant sexist streak is settling in (which lost it a star) which is odd as there are stronger female characters 'doing' the action in the story but it seems like all the men think in a very sexist way, I guess the author thinks this is what would happen if there was a zombie apoclpse and maybe it would but as a woman it gets a bit boring hearing this over and over from every male character, that said there is interesting variety in how women are written which makes it all the more disappointing.

FYI typical bad British accents, so nothing new!

I enjoyed the spinoffs too, the 'Dead snapshots' are great, I like the attention to detail (the English one was pretty much on point re: lingo and culture) and I'm enjoying the new Dead series.

Love it or Hate it Book, I hated it

What would have made Dead: Reclamation better?

This book seems to have jumped a massive time gap from the last one making some old characters bit parts and new ones bit boring if truth be told.

Has Dead: Reclamation put you off other books in this genre?

Yes this book really put me off any further DEAD books if they come out

You didn’t love this book--but did it have any redeeming qualities?

The book it written well but for a dead book it is short but until near the end it was ok.

Any additional comments?

Ok it seems like the series has ran out of ideas, the book is very short compared with previous ones but the bigger problem it was just boring as time had gone along and we had to re-engage with characters years on and this really did not work for me..... The biggest problem is that weak characters now take centre stage so it is a bit 'wet' and boring really until you get to geeks which i love but at the end of the book something happens here to wipe out the last real big character in the dead series, this author is great at doing that and even though i normally hate it, i do get why he does it but to be honest normally a strong character comes in to replace but thinking of this book and maybe last 2 i really only buy to hear the geeks adventures mainly with the other bits filling time and now i say thanks for an amazing series but you really needed the KD in the series to keep it alive and for me it is now dead. If 11 comes out i am sorry it will not be in my cart but thanks for a great ride til this book.
