Publisher's summary
This sci-fi /zombie/comedy/adventure follows a group of rag-tag Trekkies getting together for the fifth annual FedCon (billed as the "largest Starfleet Convention in the western Gulf Coast region").
Our heroes are dressed in homemade uniforms and armed with prop phasers but soon find themselves defending their hotel and convention center against hordes of flesh-eating undead. Suddenly, all of their useless knowledge about particle physics and old Star Trek episodes has genuine real-world applications! And while hotel employees and regular civilians are dying left and right, our Trekkies summon strength and courage by emulating their favorite starship-voyaging characters.
Packed with hundreds of gags referencing Star Trek, comic books, and fan conventions, Night of the Living Trekkies reads like the strange lovechild of Galaxy Quest and Dawn of the Dead. Journey to the final frontier of zombie science-fiction mash-ups!
This is an original work of parody and is not officially sponsored by, affiliated with, or endorsed by the owners of the Star Trek brand.

Story
If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

A new urban fantasy featuring a man working on the right side of the law - with talents that come from left field. Psychometry - the power to touch an object and divine information about its history - has meant a life of petty crime for Simon Canderous, but now he's gone over to the good side. At New York's underfunded and (mostly) secret Department of Extraordinary Affairs, he's learning about red tape, office politics, and the basics of paranormal investigation. But it's not the paperwork that has him breathless.

Even non trekkies will love this little gem
I have to be honest when I first downloaded this book I had huge reservations as I was solely buying this book because it was part of the zombie apocalypse genre to which I am loyally addicted. I came a across this little treasure purely by chance while I was browsing for something that was about zombies but that I hadn’t already listened to a thousand times. I was like zombies and a Trekkie convention WTF!!! Do I dare !!! So I took a chance. Let me assure you it is worth the credit and more. The story centres around a guy who served time in the military and now works as a security guard at a mid range hotel in a typical American city that caters to various fan boy events and conventions, this guy is a likeable and relatable protagonist with faults, flaws and a great sense of humour we can all relate to. The events for the most part play out from his perspective with a few brief moments from some of the side characters. Basically the zombie apocalypse is slowing as innocuously evolving in this city and our main character is going about an average day st work dealing with a hotel full of Trekkie fans and the accompanying hoopla that comes with. Although our guy is not aware of what is happening slowly but surely his military background has his spidy sense up that something is just off about today!! What could it be ??? Lol!!!The Trekkie angle is shown through the main characters perspective and he is not a fan really so his observations of some of the wacky people that attend these conventions while not mean or contemptible are quite hilarious and the book does not exclude or put off people who may not be Star Trek genre fans, the action and plot build slowly with o e little clue after another that tells our main character he should pay attention to his gut and find out what the hell is actually happening. The actual zombies in this story are not completely what we ZA lovers or zombie apocalypse lovers for u newbies have come to accept as the norm for the undead, their is a cool and quite clever little twist on what they are and why it is happening. Don’t get me wrong the story still has plenty of traditional zombie gore and action. The comedy is very tongue and cheek and compliments and carries the plot along very well. You will be immediately hooked into our hero’s adventure as he tries to survive the Trekkie conventions, zombies and his every day at work craziness!!! There is even a little twist in the end that really isn’t seen coming which makes it all the more enjoyable. The majority of the story plays out in the contained environment of the hotel and that plays well to give the listener the feeling of our hero being caught in a trap that he must somehow escape while he still helps those around him. Our main character is resourceful and quick on his feet while not being such a expert tactile spec ops guy that he becomes cheesy and stereotypical of the usual ZA hero’s we all know. The editing and production of the audio is completely acceptable with nothing that is glaringly bad and would distract you as a listener narrator is actually quite good and you can believe this is the voice of our main character we are hearing. I only gave the narrator three stars because I would consider someone like Wil Wheaton or Luke Daniels to be of five star quality however don’t be worried three star narrations in my opinion are about par for the course and do not disappoint or distract for the story. The story is fast moving and does not do that annoying thing where all of a sudden we find ourselves being dragged off into a totally different character and storyline for way too long, to me this breaks up the flow and causes the story to loose its forward momentum. Any deviations from the main characters perspective are brief and serve to increase enjoyment of the book not hamper it. If you love zombies or zombie apocalypse survival stories and are even tolerant of the whole Trekkie thing listen to this book I guarantee you will be doing exactly what I did and find yourself listening to this book many times over !!! Hurry people Click add to my cart now and you won’t be disappointed believe me or u can come to my house and zap with you phaser!!! Only on stun though people lets be reasonable

Awfully familiar
This was a fun book...but I had just finished listening to "Infected" and I thought, "wow, besides the Star Trek stuff, this sounds awfully familar." I guess authors are probably inspired by books they've read themselves, but it was kind of annoying.

A Fun Take on a Dramatic Genre
Night of the Living Trekkies is really enjoyable book with some slight issues. The narrator doesn’t really capture all emotions well. There were times where I was expecting a lot of pain and sadness to come through, and the delivery was more straight or casual than it should have been. People are dying, and it seems like another Wednesday for these individuals. Someone kills another person for the first time in their lives — on to another kill. It’s strange.
The writing itself is also a little strange, but it all ties back to those emotions. It doesn’t feel like the characters are really going through much stress. However, there are times when the stress comes though. This book bounces back and forth between Zombieland and The Walking Dead, and it can confuse the reader.
However, I will say that I was very happy to purchase and own this. While the narrator didn’t catch a lot the emotions, I love the different voices he did for all the characters. When he did emotions, I was very happy with them.
Also, that back and forth of the genres made for a somewhat refreshing take, which led to this book being different than a lot of other zombie stories I’ve read. It’s serious but also light hearted. It’s cool but also nerdy. It’s unique, and I think that’s why it’s going into my favorites list. It’s so different and refreshing, and never terrible in any area, that I’ll want to hear it again.
I’d pay a full credit for this book. It’s staying in my library.

You have it all in this one. Couldn't have been better. It seemed a little slow at first but once it got going I was happy. The reader did an excellent job and the production was top notch. Hope they do some more like this in the future. As you would expect with a title like this it is funny and if you are a Star trek fan you'll like all the references. Zombies at a Star trek convention you gotta love that!

I got the wrong idea of the quality by the cover of the book! I came across dale and earl stories on a podcast loved them and looked up the author and found this gem. literally amazing storie holds you from beginning to end and im not a star treck or star wars fan at all. worth the read completely and if you haven't heard of Dale and earl ( sadly the book isn't on audible get your crap together guys) then you better read there book by same author!

Highly Enjoyable
Truth be told, most zombie fiction is pretty bad. Whether it be the poor writing or bland characters put into cliche scenarios, I tend to put down most of these books rather than finish them. Thankfully, this book avoids a lot of the pitfalls and tells a funny albeit dramatic story about Star Trek fans trying to survive a zombie apocalypse. It's a fun read for sure, and if you're a Trekkie, you'll love all the Star Trek references scattered throughout the pages. Each chapter is named after an episode which works most of the time.
The wonderful thing about this book is that keeps its eyes always focused on the story. The characters feel real and their encounters can be gripping and sometimes tragic. The concept, while funny, is kept in check by the author's attention to plot and character.
Honestly, this could have been a disaster with lesser skilled writers, but instead, it was a refreshing read that I highly recommend.
