Publisher's summary

"All of us try to cheat death. I was just better prepared to do it than most folks."In the years since the wave of living death swept the globe, St George and his fellow heroes haven't just kept Los Angeles' last humans alive - they've created a real community, a bustling town that's spreading beyond its original walls and swelling with new refugees. But now one of the heroes, perhaps the most powerful among them, seems to be losing his mind. The implacable enemy known as Legion has found terrifying new ways of using zombies as pawns in his attacks. And outside the Mount, something ancient and monstrous is hell-bent on revenge.As Peter Clines weaves these elements together in yet another masterful, shocking climax, St. George, Stealth, Captain Freedom, and the rest of the heroes find that even in a city overrun by millions of ex-humans... there's more than one way to come back from the dead.

Hooked from the first

If you could sum up Ex-Communication in three words, what would they be?

Surprising, Entertaining, Interesting

Who was your favorite character and why?

St. George because of not only he is invulnerable and super strong but he is a genuinely good person. Not cocky.

Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This holds up to his style. Ive read (listened to) 4 books of his and have loved them all.

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

Yes but unfortunately it had to be a back and forth to work book.

Any additional comments?

I wish and hope that there will be more in the series. I wasnt so sure of the theme "Zombies & super heroes" but after giving the first book a chance I am now a fan of the genre (if there is one).

Great Plot Twists

I think this is my favorite of the series. Ended on a great note and I really liked the new plot twists that; for me, were unexpected. It brought something new to this genre which keeps it exciting and looking forward to the next installment.

Another great sequel!

Loved it, as usual for this series. The connection to the other books is very nice. Some favorite moments were Madeline's story arc, meeting Karen, and how they took down the big bad this time. the narrators did well this time but there felt like some streamlining of some voices this time around; Berry just doesn't sound the same in this book as the last book, and there is not too much difference between Daniel (Cerberus) and Stealth. However, I wholly enjoyed the book.

Very good book but character mistakes

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I thought it was a great story line that took many new twist. The story lines were very interesting.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I like corpse girl, not sure why. I typically don't like "kid" characters, but she added to the group in some way. The character blended very well with the other characters.

Cpt. Freedom is a fun character too.

Zap is still pretty funny.

What three words best describe the narrators’s voice?

The voices fit.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I very much enjoyed to trying to figure out what was happening to Maddie. I kind of did figure it out quite early, but not the twist.

Any additional comments?

Keep it up. I really like these story lines. They aren't getting stale. They've become some of my favorite series and encouraged me to read Peter's other books.

Although, now I'm out of Peter Cline books.

Tension building!

My emotional reaction was crazy! I knew things were wrong and Clines just kept building on it! I am exhausted!

Decent

The plot twists and new characters keep it interesting enough that I want to listen to the next one.

Ex-cellent chapter is this series

Peter always strikes me as the the king of writing what you know. The interjections of equipment and knowledge from his career in the film industry add quite a bit of authenticity to his writing. Character arcs drive this narrative forward. Solid entry in the Ex world.

Enjoyable!

As good as the first two. Some things were as plain as day in front of me but I didn't make all the initial connections-so had some nice little surprises! Worth a listen!!!

Best book in the series

Out of all five books this one is the smartest, the best characterized, and the most epic. Not only do you get to see a little of the daily life in the Mount, you get introduced to some pretty awesome new characters. Plus, Legion and Cairax make for excellent villains. Seriously the other books are good but this one is great! AUDIBLE 20 REVIEW SWEEPSTAKES ENTRY

The Ex series is fantastic

Third book in the series and loving every minute of the ride. This series deserves an awesome adult animation special on NetFlix.
