The Fall of the Governor

The Walking Dead, Book 3

De: Robert Kirkman, Jay Bonansinga

Narrado por: Fred Berman

The third book in Robert Kirkman's New York Times bestselling series, The Walking Dead: The Fall of the Governor!


The Walking Dead original novel series, set in Robert Kirkman's iconic universe, continues with The Fall of the Governor. From co-authors Kirkman, creator of the Eisner Award-winning comic book and executive producer of AMC's blockbuster TV series, and Jay Bonansinga, Stoker Award-finalist and internationally acclaimed author, comes the gripping third novel in this richly woven, page-turning literary saga, which began with The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor.

In Rise of the Governor, uber-villain Philip Blake journeyed from his humble beginnings directly into the dark heart of the zombie apocalypse, and became the self-proclaimed leader of a small town called Woodbury. In The Road to Woodbury, an innocent traveler named Lilly Caul wound up in the terrifying thrall of Phillip Blake's twisted, violent dictatorship within Woodbury's ever tightening barricades.

And now, in The Fall of the Governor, the Governor's complex story continues in a tour de force of action and horror. Iconic characters from the comic book, including Rick, Michonne and Glenn, finally make their entrance onto this nightmarish stage, and fans of The Walking Dead will see these characters in a whole new light.

Reseñas de la Crítica

<p>“The books are a really fun read...It's an interesting look at the universe that you already know and you might learn some things about your favorite characters you never knew.” —<i>FANBOLT on The Fall of the Governor: Part One and Part Two</i><br><br>“An entertaining read.” —<i>ComicBookMovie.com on The Walking Dead: The Road to Woodbury</i><br><br>“The novel fleshes out . . . backstories and connects them, giving depth to people who remained largely mysteries in the comic books. For comic book readers, the novel is full of easter eggs and surprise connections, making it not only entertaining, but necessarily for filling in the gaps left by the comic books . . . 'The Road to Woodbury' is an essential read for any fan of 'The Walking Dead'.” —<i>Examiner.com</i><br><br>“Zombie-apocalypse stories are perfect for miserable winter weather regardless, but for those obsessed with <i>The Walking Dead</i> (such as yours truly), this is essential reading. This is the epitome of a page-turner, and makes subway rides just breeze by. And, that end -woof.” —<i>REFINERY29 on The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor</i><br><br>“An excellent companion to the <i>The Walking Dead</i> comic books. The story is enriched by the novel format, and the characterization of the series' most hated villain is something no fan will want to miss.” —<i>Examiner.com on The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor</i><br><br>“This book stands alone and is a compelling read for fans of the series or just fans of zombies. Watch out though, because once you get a taste of the particular Kirkman brand of zombie mayhem, catching up on past issues is just around the corner.” —<i>The Ossuary on The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor</i><br><br>“The story makes a great novel. You'll get sucked in and can easily visualize everything that is happening. It's simply a great read.” —<i>Comicvine.com on The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor</i><br><br>“It takes great advantage of the literary medium in a way that most tie-in books would not.” —<i>TVOverMind.com on The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor</i><br><br>“Not for the faint of heart, this book runs on pressure-cooker suspense, graphically described bloodshed, and dark acts of brutality...This riveting character study adds a new dimension to the oeuvre by fleshing out established characters and plot lines.” —<i>School Library Journal on The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor</i></p>

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Fall of the Governor?

Any additional comments?

I'm about half way but its so hard to not picture the Gov as Merle from the AMC series. The actor's voice sounds so much like him, especially since I've seen the series version of the Gov.

Bloody awesome

If it wasn't for the last quarter of this book it would've been a two star review but Michonne came in to save the day. Would've loved to see this played out in the series. That was some Wu Tang torture chamber level stuff.

More great Walking Dead stories!

Always wondered what happened to the hideous man called the Governor. Now I know. Yikes.

Good Listen

The book was a good listen on the way to and from work each day.
