Zombies!

The Complete Post-Apocalyptic SciFi Zombie Thriller Series in One Boxset

De: R S Merritt

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

A Family Fights to Survive in a World Overrun by the Infected in this 2,200+ Page Post-apocalyptic Survival Thriller.

A family was torn apart in the first chaotic days of the outbreak. The parents were stranded on an island off the coast of New England, cut off from the mainland as society collapsed. Their children were hundreds of miles away in Florida with their grandmother, trapped in a church while the monsters pushed their way in.

Now, across a shattered America, both sides of the family must fight to survive and find one another before the last traces of humanity are wiped out by violence, fear, and the rage of the infected.

Inside this complete box set is the full series:

1. A Small World – The outbreak begins and the world falls apart.
2. Against the Current – Trapped and hunted with no escape.
3. Violence Solves Everything – The law is gone, and survival has a price.
4. Nowhere to Hide – The long road north through chaos and death.
5. Greater Love Hath No Man – Courage and sacrifice in a dying world.
6. Hold the Line – The infection spreads, and humanity fights back.
7. Still Standing – Love, loss, and the battle to rebuild what remains.

A brutal, emotional, realistic journey through the apocalypse.

From bestselling author R.S. Merritt, Zombies! delivers a gripping, high-stakes vision of an infection-driven collapse and the determination of one family to find each other and endure in a world turned upside down.

Perfect for fans of:

Max Brooks — World War Z
Mark Tufo — Zombie Fallout

If you love fast-paced survival horror, relentless infected, military-style action, and characters you will root for until the bitter end, this series will keep you turning pages late into the night.

The infection is spreading. No one is safe.

AI pronunciation

Great story and characters. This series was easy to follow but the AI narration was bad. Constantly mispronouncing words.

I really enjoyed this

I would love to see another series with this. I want to know what happens 10 years from the end and maybe a prequel. Please do a prequel to this, where we learn all of the Governor and Sam secrets that have to do with the start of it and maybe a day one for it, or something!

Don't Let The Virtual Voice Keep You From Trying This One!

First of all, yes, this book is narrated by AI virtual voice. HOWEVER, before you walk away, virtual narration has come a long, LONG way in the past few years and is no longer the flat, emotionless, inflectionless computer voice we all know and hate (like the Android system voice or the crappy "accessibility" voice that comes with Kindle). While it's nowhere near ready to replace real human narrators, it's still a lot better than it used to be. Now there's variety in tone of voice and inflection, organic pauses, and it's obvious when characters are speaking vs narrative text. It's also obvious when characters are shouting, asking questions, etc., making the whole experience much more enjoyable.

The only thing I'd suggest the author/publisher to change would be to remove the sections where the narration reads off the chapter numbers and titles at the beginning of books 2-5 (or whatever the last book number is, I forget). It's a full 2+ minutes of droning chapter, title, chapter, title, that adds absolutely nothing to the story or the experience. Oh, and fix the pronunciation of "bow"; it seems like all AI narrators pronounce it like the verb "böw", as in the thing you do in the presence of royalty, instead of the noun "bōw", like bow and arrow. There are also a few other verb vs noun pronunciation issues but that's the one that keeps coming up and it is a little annoying. The occasional typos (like "spilt" instead of "split") are plainly obvious as well but just kind of make me laugh.

As for the story itself, it both is and isn't a typical zompoc. There are some variations on the traditional zombie that make things more interesting. The characters are well developed and easy to become invested in. There's plenty of action, suspense, and the occasional, well placed moments of humor. Plus, the author isn't afraid to kill off main characters, so you can't get too comfortable. Overall it's very well written, easy to get sucked in to, and hard to turn off.

Similar series that I've enjoyed include Adrian's Undead Diary by Chris Philbrook and Zombie Rules by David Achord.

a virtual voice is just so hard to listen to the story with great. I hope they do it virtual voice is going to be gone soon

Interesting listen, first person narrative

There’s a lot of mispronunciations but other than that the story is excellent! I wish it kept going.
