Fun zombie book!

If you love guns, knives, military equipment and killing zombies this book is great! I enjoyed how the author was specific on weapons. I was constantly looking them up and I ordered a few!

Great zombie action

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

It was awesome, even if the narrator isn't a gun/knife guy and isn't sure how to pronounce ka-bar or hornady. An awesome story though and it kept me involved for 13 hours straight, that's hard to do with my "gun dudes" like attention span. But I digress, this follows the Ogre from the day it happens until he thoroughly turns the tides against the zombie hordes and is elected president. Its not the normal zombie horror story but its action packed and fun to listen to.

What did you like best about this story?

I'm a bit of a gun/knife whore so this got me all worked up, and reminded me that I still need a Becker Necker knife.

The narrator is awful

couldnt get through 1 hour of this book let alone the whole book. He is constantly referring to his wife as his bride and the narrators voice is annoying

I love it

Great story telling from normal folks that think in the what if state of mind keep up the great books and the good work and stay away from the gun dudes lol!!!

Guns, guts and a fair amount of zombie gore;)

Would you consider the audio edition of Uprising USA to be better than the print version?

Audiobooks as a whole make it easier for me to read books, I don't have the time or opportunity anymore to sit and read, so having the chance while I'm working to enjoy a book often means the difference between me reading a certain book and wanting to read it.

What did you like best about this story?

I enjoyed the characters, and the accuracy of the descriptions of the firearms and tactics. That I believe is the strong suit with the author, accuracy for once in a book regarding firearms.

Which character – as performed by Jason Clearfield – was your favorite?

No real favorite, honestly I'll say I wasn't thrilled with the accents of the reader, however it didn't detract from the book itself. That said I've heard the author speak on the radio so I also am familiar with his voice enough to know it's not really a southern accent as it's portrayed in the audio version.

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

Honestly can't put my finger on a certain point that was more moving, the entire book I thought was good, I guess laying that down honestly I enjoyed the start where your being introduced to the characters and situation. I think the creepy part of a zombie book is often when you know nothing;)

Any additional comments?

Overall I'm not a zombie reader, I don't go out of my way to read this type of book. However I am a fan of several authors like Larry Correia and his MHI series, I enjoy the accuracy in which he writes about firearms as well. So this to me is in the same vein, if you enjoy books by Steven Hunter, Larry Correia, and authors like them(as far as firearms), I would certainly give this a read, it was a fun ride from beginning to end.
