De: Mira Grant

Narrado por: Georgia Dolenz

Feedback is a full-length Newsflesh novel that overlaps the events of the acclaimed first novel in the series, Feed, and offers a new entry point to this thrilling and treacherous world from New York Times bestseller Mira Grant.

There are two sides to every story. . .

We had cured cancer. We had beaten the common cold. But in doing so we unleashed something horrifying and unstoppable. The infection spread leaving those afflicted with a single uncontrollable impulse: FEED.

Now, twenty years after the Rising, a team of scrappy underdog reporters relentlessly pursue the facts while competing against the brother-and-sister blog superstars, the Masons.

Surrounded by the infected, and facing more insidious forces working in the shadows, they must hit the presidential campaign trail and uncover dangerous truths. Or die trying.

"Astonishing ... a fascinating exploration of the future."—New York Times on Newsflesh series

"While there's plenty of zombie mayhem, political snark, and pointedly funny observations here, the heart of this book is about human relationships, which are still the most important thing in the world...even in a world where you might have to shoot the person you love most in the head, just to stop them from biting off your face."—Locus on Feed

So happy to be back in the Newsflesh world!

Newsflesh is a really unique take on the post-zompocalypse genre, presenting the most realistic setting for the state of the United States politics and journalism that I've ever seen. This installment continues that realism to account for the people who would be more on the fringes of that society, the people who wouldn't have the privileges available to the white, wealthy, and straight Masons of the original series. I was absolutely thrilled with the new characters and loved following their journey.

While this book does take place during the events of the original trilogy, I think it can be read alone with little issue. It contains depictions of LGBTQ people, nonbinary individuals, people of color, and Democratic presidential candidates, so if those topics bother you...get over yourself it's 2019.

Mira Grant is the bomb!!

Really enjoyed the book. I have problems reading myself and the audio version was a wonderful find. Georgia Dolenz reading the book helped with Ashlynn's vocalizations. She's Irish, so we needed an accent. Georgia Dolenz was wonderful. Really enjoyed this.

Another FANTASTIC entry in the Newflesh series

Mira Grant (pen name for Seanan McGuire) has done it again! Her Newsflesh series combines the survival horror of zombie apocalypse with the best political intrigue thrillers out there, while spicing it up with some really tough questions on human nature, the job of the news media as the 4th estate, and what it means to be a medical practitioner, among other things. I HIGHLY recommend this audiobook.

Love the various additions

I really enjoy the Newsflesh series. I’m a zombie book lover and enjoy this series initially because of this. I stay for all of the additional story lines because the author has created a rich world with characters that are intriguing and well rounded. I well understand why this series has won awards. Those who like this unusual genre will be drawn in by this new refreshing look.

My only negative is I wanted a list of the stories in the edition which was impossible to find.

Worth a listen

performance was great! I love the Irish accent. a few inconsistencies with the series which always drives me nuts which is why it's not getting a 5 stars. but overall enjoyable
