Rise of the Dead

By: Jeremy Dyson

Narrated by: John R. Crosthwaite

Rise of the Dead is a zombie novel with a lot of guts that aims for the brain, blending literary fiction with post-apocalyptic thrills.

Blake was never one for taking chances. He lived in a world of formulas and equations. A statistician in a controlled society where everything had become predictably mundane. That world disappeared the day the dead got up and began attacking the living.

Now, the end is here. Blake finds himself fighting for his life in a world that is rapidly spiraling out of control. He struggles to keep himself alive and must risk everything to find his family.

Along the way, Blake finds himself thrust among other unlikely survivors. Together they must adapt to the realities of the undead world, or join the legion of zombies. The characters must overcome their conditioned human apathy and come together if they have any chance of survival.

Rise of the Dead chronicles the first moments of the zombie apocalypse. While the story is a fast-paced thrill ride through an ever-growing zombie horde, the novel aims to draw upon familiar themes as those found in the Romero classic films.

loved it

great first book, loved the plot, I am so impatient for the next book but can't wait to read it, def a thumbs up for me

pretty good story to start

basic zombie movie nothing unusual here interesting enough to keep me focused and also to want to hear the next book.

Absolutely Sensational

From the opening chapter, to the last sentence, this novel had me utterly enthralled. Jeremy Dyson nailed it, and the narration was absolutely superb. I'm sad it's over, as I feel like I've lost some friends! I hope Mr. Dyson is working hard on a second book, because I'm already ready to get my hands on it.

awesome read

This was a great book. It started with a bang and it kept going. The plot was refreshing. I received this copy for a re iew, but I cannot wait to buy the next one.

on the edge of your seat all the way through

loved it so much that I hated it to end. Start this one, and I promise within 2 or 3 pages you are hooked! The storyline pulls you in and makes you care about the characters. ♡♡♡♡♡♡
