Happy Endings Cost Extra

Wicked Awake, Book 5

By: Merrill David

Narrated by: CJ Grey

Like malicious puppet masters, those responsible for turning humans into undead beings have one final, despicable plan in place. This sinister scheme would undoubtedly be the end of the America that we once knew. And if successful, other like minded leaders with a similar mindset plan on duplicating the strategy in their own nations.

Counting down to his final days, Marine veteran Jake Hathaway knows he can't win this battle on his own. Will he and his band of misfits be able to mount any sort of defense to give the good people of America a fighting chance of survival? Or will those who made the country great in the first place find themselves collapsing at the feet of the same criminals who planned on eradicating and stomping on them as if they were like filthy cockroaches?

Will this final installment of the series have a Happy Ending? Don't forget, those cost extra!

Speechless…almost.

When I first hopped on the Wicked Awake filth-filled train I had no idea where it would take me. Boys and girls I have been to places I’ll never forget! Merrill seamlessly weaves a epic tale that takes man to the brink and allows us to watch and see if our heroes can save the world! I’ve been a fan of WA since day one and that love has led me to Merrill’s other fantastic, freaky, outright creepy works. I’ve always said that Merrill David has a way with words that I’ve never seen duplicated by anyone else. This book is easily his best work yet. I cheered, I laughed and yes, even cried a bit. I highly recommend you get on that train like I did. As for our fearless narrator, C.J Grey, he once again proves that, hands down, he was born to be the voice of WA and other books Merrill has written. He even sings (poorly) and that is just one of the many amazing things his sound brings to this series! Highly recommend! Now stop reading me and go read or listen to some Merrill David!!!

Fantastic Finale Fitting Feast Of Zombie Apocalypse Horror!

"Happy endings only happen in massage parlors and they cost extra."

In the 5th and final book of the fantastic 5 Star rated Wicked Awake series, Wicked Awake: Happy Endings Cost Extra, by brilliant demented horror author Merrill David, we get everything we wanted and more to send off our heroes.

The 1%, responsible for the undead in their failed evil "Invincible Warriors" project, have one final diabolical plan to destroy the America they claim to love and protect. What they don't expect is for super soldier, slowly turning into a super zombie, marine veteran, the truest of heroes, Jake Hathaway, fighting to stay awake until he saves the world. He knows he needs help so here comes his loyal band of misfits ready to do battle.

Once again, voice actor C.J.Grey gives his all with fierce intensity, from powerful confrontations, deadly fights, and heartbreaking farewells. In between he brings the laughter with wise ass snarkiness.

In every 5 Star review I left for each previous audiobook, I pleaded for the most loyal Belgian Malinois, Roscoe, to survive, and (SPOILER) he's living his best life with Sarah Connors, the Doberman Pincher. I need a puppy!

With super power red squirrel zombies, flying pigs, vodka tampons (don't ask), a nod to horror icon Alfred Hitchcock, a few Easter eggs from the author's other books, and, oh yeah, zombies, this award worthy series comes to the only possible conclusion with a bang. This series is The Boys on steroids, Fallout super sized and the The Walking Dead come alive. Thank you Mr.David for keeping me wide awake and entertained for the last 4 years.

I received a copy of this audiobook from the author for a fair and honest review. All opinions are my own.
