Zombie Rush: Books 1 and 2

De: Joseph Hansen

Narrado por: Stephen Bel Davies

New to the Hot Springs PD, Lisa Reynolds was not all that welcomed by her coworkers, especially those who were passed over for the position. But it didn't matter anymore. Her 30-day probation period ended on the same day of the Z-poc's arrival. Overnight the world goes from bad to worse as thousands die in the initial onslaught. National Guard and regular military units deployed the day before to the north leave the city in mayhem. All directions lead to death until one unlikely candidate steps forward with a plan, a plan that became an avalanche culminating into what could be the salvation or destruction of them all. A world of death and devastation, left to be ruled by one very unlikely candidate.

Suspense filled story

Great Zombie story will keep you on the edge of your seat. twist and turn that will have you wincing.

Lisa has her work cut out for her.

Pretty good zombie tale, not much background on where the virus came from or why, but that seems to be a growing trend with authors in this genre. I suppose in many cases it doesn’t matter as it has no impact or bearing on the core story. We have a new-to-the-area female lieutenant police officer, Lisa Reynolds who makes her debut in the department and the zombie apocalypse. Unlikely as it seems, our gal Lisa becomes the leader of the city’s comeback with her take-charge attitude and positive planning. She enlists competent people into her aggressive proposal who in turn bring in qualified people that they know. Before you know it Lisa has a large number of eager worker bees who want to survive and her plan to succeed. This encompasses book one. Book two continues in this vein of course detailing the group’s development and defense of their position. Furthermore, after a visit from the local National Guard, Lisa is compelled to expand her plan to encompass the entire city; a seemingly impossible task. Lisa is at odds with the job she feels she must do verses the more liberal survivors who see her as an out of control tyrant. Although it seems far-fetched that a police lieutenant finds herself in the role of city-builder, Lisa has her work cut out for her.

great Character development and non stop action

The character development was great it was non stop action from beginning and the mix of people

good

it was pretty good book. The narrator voices are horrible. his voices made everyone sound like snobs

I'm sorry but this story went from a slow start to boring

I couldn't finish the second book. Overall I kept waiting for the story to make sense and grab a theme It was all over the place gangs, serial killers, jealous coworkers, strange hook-ups people being killed because they would be a pain in the ass to protect ! Not much of a story in my opinion about the zombie apocalypse or the zombies. For me it was a odd book and just got more and more boring. The narrator was good.

Storyline is ok, narrator, not so much

The overall story isn't bad, though generic: outbreak hits, zombies attack, cop take control... blah blah. I like zombie books. I could have been more interested in the story but the narrator killed it. His voice is boring. No inflections, no real changes in characters. I wanted to like the main character, but when he spoke in her voice, I couldn't care about her. I got this book because I liked the 2 books for 1 credit. I got thru all 14 hours, but only as a time passer. I will not be getting the other books in this series, mostly due to the narrator. Listen to a sample. You may like the guy, and if you do, the story isn't bad and it will be worth your credit.

GOOD BOOK... TERRIBLE NARRATOR

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

YES... BUT WITH A WARNING... THE NARRATOR IS NOT GOOD FOR THIS BOOK...

Would you be willing to try another one of Stephen Bel Davies’s performances?

NO

Any additional comments?

GOOD BOOK... TERRIBLE NARRATOR... I LOVED THE BOOK, THE STORY AND THE CHARACTERS... BUT I ALMOST STOPED LISTENING TO IT... THE NARRATORS VOICE IS NOT GOOD FOR THIS BOOK... I WAS DISAPPOINTED WITH THE LACK OF DISTINCTION OF CHARACTER... ALL THE CHARACTERS SOUNDED THE SAME... EVEN WHEN HE ATTEMPTEDTO CHANGE HIS VOICE... TO BAD... THIS WOULD PROBABLY TURN SOME PEOPLE AWAY... HOPE THIS HELPS....
(I ONLY GAVE OVERALL A 4 STAR RATING BECAUSE OF NARRATION ONLY, THE BOOK ITSELF WAS GOOD)

My first zombie book, and I loved it!

I thought this book was very well written and narrated. As a truck driver I listen to a lot of books on Audible and it's really easy for me to get distracted and lose interest in a book. That was not the case for this book. It has a good story line, likable characters, and all the hardcore zombie action you could want. I will definitely be buying the next installment as soon as it comes out.

Best book

This book was great i recommend you to listen to it .You will love it

outstanding

great zombie story sadly after 2 books your really left hanging with what's next to the cast
