Love the characters!

Sparks is great! The story is good, it is an easy read. I am ready for more.

Better Than Some

This is an average zombie series. Only buy this version. It’s not a great deal for the 2 hour books. This includes them all which is a better deal. It has some good action sequences and some likable characters. The dialogue is just so-so. The narrator does a decent job. Nothing new here, but it’s good for a zombie fix. Has a kick ass female protagonist.

love it

I was right there with the charaters. Well Written. I cant wait to see where it takes me.

So many questions!

I have a pet peeve, short stories calling themselves books. This is advertised as a four book set. What it really is, is two books. Rant aside, it was enjoyable, action packed with likable characters.

Had I been the editor on this, I would have pointed out that there is a huge missed opportunity. What happens with type AB?

So why four stars? Because it was fun, fast paced and Ms Morgan is a stellar narrator.

I still wish I had been the editor though.

A good one.

Refused to get this when it was all written in 2 hr segments. Got it wasn’t the box set come out. Not sure if this will continue but will purchase the next. Though police woman with a bodacious team. Lots of action. Moves quickly.

Awesome!!!

This 4 book set was awesome! Great Characters! Great Narrator! I'm hooked! I need more!

I wish I'd read this

This was alright. I'm really into strong female roles but this was a bit much, not wanting to give any spoilers. There were parts I got confused on because it seemed like time was missing (I'm sure it was jumping forward) but there were things that I'd be like wait, when did they get to this place?
I also didnt understand how they immediately knew what they were when it started and I couldn't figure out how much time was passing or had passed since it all started. How did a group of skinheads take over a ton of Texas in the course of a week? idk maybe that was one of the parts I missed bc of all the jumping around.
overall, it was a fun listen for about half the book and the time did fly by. I was left feeling like it was missing a LOT though.

Good Read

Loved it. I enjoyed the different characters and their interactions with each other. I loved that Sparks and her group had no problem taking out any bad guys that threatened them. This was non stop action. My only complaint is that these books are too short. I hope Sparks and her group's story is not over, I would like to see these characters again. Till then I will read the spin off books "Dead American".

hell yeah!

this one is fun! just enough gore, just enough bad guys, just enough pro wrestling female cops! decided to try this one put when I read a comment feom the author on Facebook to a snotty asshat. he was much nicer than I would have been so I'm his newest fan!

Pretty good listen.

The first thing i want to get out of the way is that if you are looking for characters you haven't seen before you can keep on moseying along. The characters in this book while interesting and funny at times are somewhat cookie cutter for the genre, with bits of frosting to differentiate them.

There's a little too much human on human fighting for my liking, and the time scale of it all seems more than a little out of wack. But beyond that its a pretty engaging listen, The main character is likeable if a little too badass. And i don't mean i find t o her unbelievable, i mean for i've certainly seen characters like her that are way more badass that people don't blink an eye at.
I mean that i don't really get a sense of who she really is other than a woman who has stepped up and takes no prisoners.

I hope as the series continues i get to see characters developed more and for my other notes to get addressed. The book is a fun and engaging read, i just have listened to very many zombie books so i may be a bit critical.
