Publisher's summary

After an intense battle with Gephardt security forces, Dan awakens to find himself trapped in a nightmare beyond belief. He is the pawn in a strange and macabre game, subjected to unspeakable horrors and torture, all put on by a familiar psychopath who has undergone some changes.

Dan must play along with his twisted and demented captor's game long enough to escape and find his friends. Only by enduring the pain of addiction, the horrors of a new breed of infected, and the torturous days of solitude, can Dan hope to ever see Drew, Jake, and Vincent again.

Can he survive hell long enough?

If you haven't done so, get book 1 now! :)

This series just gets better and better with each installment! The third episode ended with a huge cliff hanger, so I was eager to find out what happend. This book was so exciting, and the action didn't stop the whole way through. I was so surprised by the twists, and didn't see things happening the way they did. One of my favorite things about this series is the characters. I absolutely love that these guys are not even close to being perfect. They drink a lot, and have a slight addiction to pain meds. They make mistakes, and all those things make these guys feel more real to me. Clifford Edwards is the narrator of the audiobook, and he is perfect! I can't see anyone else's voice being any better for this. He does a variety of voices in these books, and they are all great. I'm so in love with this series, and I hope to see many more episodes. If you haven't already gotten into this series, I suggest doing it right now! I can not wait to see where the story takes us next!

Deserves More Than 5 Stars- Amazing Book!I

Would you consider the audio edition of Wormwood Dawn: Episode IV to be better than the print version?

I did not read the print version so therefore I am unable to compare the two.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Dan is still my favorite character throughout all 4 parts of this series. I enjoy watching Dan evolve.

What does Clifford Edwards bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Clifford Edwards - What can I say besides amazing, talented and creative narrator. His character voices are well defined from one another - no two sound alike. I could not bring this story to life in my own imagination the way that Clifford Edwards manages to do for me. I could not imagine anyone else narrating this series.

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

Yes. I actually listened to all 4 parts of this series in 2 days. If I didn't have to sleep, I probably would have done all 4 in the same day. This series is just that great!

Awesome

I've listened to a lot of series in the zombie genre and this is my favorite so far. I hope the rest of the series is added soon!

The end of the world wasn't enough...

The end of the world wasn't enough... now he's trapped and the games have just begun

4.5 out of 5 stars

Dan, our unlikely hero awakens to find himself trapped. Yes, the world has gone crazy -- but where he awakens is even worse. Forced to "play games" by the "game master" he is subject to more and more horrible things. He must escape -- he must save his friends from Gephardt.

The narration for episode IV was done by Clifford Edwards. The quality of this was perfect, and the effects that Edwards uses (such as inside voice) and the voice of the captor are great. Edwards performance really adds to this already awesome story.

The story starts off dark, and I mean really dark. I was a little worried that the story wouldn't turn hopeful at all and I would be depressed by the time I finished it. Without spoiling anything, I was glad that the story did take an eventual turn.

Crae has this was of writing - it's visceral and real and it really makes the reader feel like they are right there with Dan as he struggles his way through different situations.

The story, overall started off a bit different but ended up similarly than the other episodes. I did feel like this had more of an "ending," but just because the arc of the story was complete and Dan and company were ready to continue fighting.

I will be eagerly awaiting the next episode that Crae & Edwards team up on. The duo of writing and performance has me coming back for more -- similar to the never-ending hunger of the shamblers.

Edge of Your Seat Thriller Not to be Missed

EPISODE IV of WORMWOOD DAWN starts out intense and never lets up. A must listen. Dan is awakened by his father in a dream only to find himself being held captive in a basement, the victim of a sick game being played by Robert or 'R'. His time is running out and in between the fog of being drugged and trying to think of a plan, he's joined by another prisoner Mike. Together they find a way out. After escaping, Dan finds where Doug and Vincent are being held and frees them as well as a new guy named Gabe who decides to join Dan.

This is a fantastic apocalyptic world built by EDWARD CRAE with amazing characters who could be anyone we know. They're realistic, likeable, flawed people navigating the world in which they've inherited.

CLIFFORD EDWARDS is one heck of an awesome narrator. This book in particular shows exactly what a skilled reader and vocal actor he is. His work is incredibly good. Dan's character is my favorite of coarse but the way CE does the evil voice of Robert is flipping over the top, hair raising WOW!

I'm already gripping for the next installment of this book. It's that good. Highly recommended.

Audiobook received in exchange for my honest review.

One GREAT Series

I love this post-apocalyptic series. This was a little different than the last 3, was very dark and creepy but great just the same. I love when Dan and Drew are together they are crazy fun, upset with Jake and Vincent. Clifford Edwards does great job with the characters you automatically know who is talking. I don’t know how many is in the series but never want them to stop! Author Edward Crae is one insane writer. This audiobook was provided by the narrator and THANK YOU!! Keep them coming!

Wormwood 4

This is the fourth book in a series.I have loved every one.There is a lot of zombie,shooting and friendship in these,but it's all in good 'fun'.Clifford Edwards is a fine narrator.
I was given this book for an honest review.

Brilliant!

This little serial just keeps getting better!! In this edition, poor Dan wakes up bound. When it dawns on him that he is trapped by the absolutely insane serial killer that has been stalking him, he is terrified. The "gamemaster" has plans for Dan which are worse than Dan can imagine. Can he escape?

I'm not going into the plot because since this is episode 4, I will spoil something, so all I'll say is, wow! This one was so dark, scary and intense, I was on the edge of my seat the whole way through and had to listen to it in one sitting. I was on edge waiting to see what happens to Dan!! This author really knows how to pack a punch in such a short span of time.

Apart from loving the story, Clifford Edwards was amazing! He is Dan and I couldn't picture anyone else reading these. He was so so creepy as the killer and really brought this book to life.
