De: TW Brown

Narrado por: TW Brown

The world of the Dead has come to your doorstep.

TW Brown's best-selling series is now unfolding around the world in cities and one-stoplight towns alike. The first stop is his very own Portland, Oregon.

Meet Ken Simpson, a retired police officer; Rose Tinnes, a newly divorced woman trying to get her life back in order; and Jason Edwards, a man recently paroled and looking forward to his freedom. These three people form the nucleus of an unlikely group who will struggle to survive as their city falls to the undead.

As the city of Portland, Oregon, spirals into hellish chaos, it is not just the walking dead that prove to be a problem. In a world suddenly stripped of any order, it might be the living that pose the greatest threat.

What made the experience of listening to Dead: Snapshot: Portland, Oregon the most enjoyable?

My and the authors home town being ravaged by the undead hordes was a very fun read. I have thought it through many times and it was so refreshing to hear an amazing writers perspective on the same subject. You get to agree or disagree with decisions the characters make on a whole different level and ride out the consequences.

What other book might you compare Dead: Snapshot: Portland, Oregon to and why?

Its a tough book to place. It is a stand alone novel , however it does nod to his dead series in ways that make Dead completely worth reading before reading the snapshot books.So as a stand alone novel its a yummy book one in a zombie series. With the dead books having been read, its a yummy book one with lots of inside references to your most beloved characters you can not get enough of.

Which character – as performed by TW Brown – was your favorite?

You can tell thees characters are his brain children, he takes great time and effort with each one. Juanita ,aaron and jason were excellent.

His attention down to the last detail without dragging out a single sentence is such a pleasure to read.

Fantastic driving audio book

Love this book, the story gets better as it plays out. I will defiantly be buying more of his titles.

Great Story But .......

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Mr. Brown - you are an amazing writer ! However .... please don't read your own stuff any more! If this book had been by anyone else but you, I would have returned it because I just thought the audible was - well - terrible. That being said - the story was great - the writing was just what you would expect from this great writer.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of TW Brown?

Mark Gagliardi

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

no

Can't wait in Rio Vista.

Would you consider the audio edition of Dead: Snapshot: Portland, Oregon to be better than the print version?

I was a little sad when the story ended, and I do mean ended but I see how this plays out so I plan on sending him information about my hometown hopefully I'll soon read about my city being over run by the undead, who knows I might even be a heroine in the book.

What did you like best about this story?

The way you feel like your walking along side the people in the book.

I liked all of his performances, I look forward to hearing him again though I know that might not be possible since he will be writing the next INSTALLMENT!

HURRY UP WITH SNAP SHOT #2

A fine addition to the Dead series

What did you like best about this story?

The flavor of this book tastes like the Dead series, and I can't get enough...

Any additional comments?

Let me start by saying that I have read and listened to the entire Dead series. I'm also a huge fan of the author. On top of that, I consider him my friend. All of that being said, I won't pull any punches or beat around the bush. I LOVED IT. Being an author and a narrator is a hard gig. Trust me, I know. Considering that this is his first attempt at this whole audio book thing, this was great! He ain't Jim Dale, but he ain't half bad. The audio quality is consistent, his tonal quality is good, his voices are decent... He did well.The story rocks. TW Browns stories always rock. His inclusion of the dog just made me smile. No spoilers here!!! Listen/read it for yourself. It's dark in all the right places, with a gooey creamy middle (that comment is not based on facts, but I've always wanted to say it).Five stars, sir. And please, can I have another?

Gripping

T.W. Brown has done an amazing job once again.
Loved every minute. I am so invested in the characters....I need more!

Story good, narration not so good.

The story, like all of Mr. Browns works is solid, and very well thought out. However the author needs more practice in being a narrator.

great for a first time.

I will be brief. but effective with this. the overall story is superb. Nothing like the imagination of TW brown to keep you company on long days on the road. I have nothing bad to say about the charecters. stories or anything of that sort.

on to the bad but fixable part. I was listening intently for patterns of errors or flaws. your voice. is perfect. but the sound quality is .. lacking. I will explain

in some parts it seemed like you were far away from the microphone. or turning your head. maybe even getting a cup of coffee. I am not sure. that is my only complaint

on to the great part. your voice is mesmerizing
utterly drew me in. along with your writing and it blew my mind how I wanted to keep listening no matter what
so if this is your new venture. keep it up. I applaud your new venue. and I am first in line for snapshot 2. so my old friend. there you have it. the good the bad and the ugly. mostly good though. thank you again.

What did you love best about Dead: Snapshot: Portland, Oregon?

I'm a big fan of the Dead series so this standalone story was a must read/listen to book

What other book might you compare Dead: Snapshot: Portland, Oregon to and why?

At face value you could compare this book to other Zompoc fiction however TW Brown writes in a very descriptive way creating characters you either love or hate where you are rooting for them or wanting them to meet their end!

Have you listened to any of TW Brown’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This is the first of TW Brown's audio books I have listened to and I think based on this that I will listen to more in the future

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This book (and the series) made me wonder what I would do if the world fell apart.. would I be strong enough to live up to the ideals I have now an dhow would the lines between good and bad blur as situations got more desperate.

Any additional comments?

I need to add that I was provided a copy by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
