Publisher's summary

Jace's return to Kansas is an instant reminder that there really is no place like home. The tavern is still brimming with losers, practical jokers, and motorcycle chicks. Even the town's only Goth is still wearing eyeliner. But just as Jace is about to click her heels and hightail out of there, she's roped into a brand-new case. Somebody is possessed. And the bodies are piling up....

They call him the Gallowsman. According to legend, he was sentenced to hang-though his crimes still have not been specified. When he was strung up to die, his spirit stuck around waiting for people to hang themselves... so he could steal their bodies. Now, with the undead rising up and going on a rampage, Jace must put her own neck on the line. Can she get the Gallowsman to give up the ghost?

Unusual and highly entertaining

The whole series is fun. Made me laugh out loud more times than I can remember. Worth a credit.

Super irritated!

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Yeah, I'd make it a real Bloodhound files book that starts off with the cliff hanger from the last book. WTH?

Creative ending to a fun series

This was a great and fun way to revisit the whole series before saying goodbye. As for the reviewers who are mad about the ending... That's silly, theres no mystery, its plain. Were you paying attention at all throughout the books?

GREAT STORY AND GREAT SERIES

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

YES, VERY ENTERTAINING.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Undead to the World?

TO MUCH TO COVER

Which scene was your favorite?

MOST ALL

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

SURE

Any additional comments?

Ok, but not my favorite.

The story was extremely confusing. I wasn't sure what the heck was going on in the beginning. Then it made a little more sense. I heard it's the last book in the series and I feel it leaves you hanging. Johanna Parker was awesome as usual.

Wonderful

I want another book in this series. It kills me to leave it as a cliff hanger.

You got "Seinfeld" and the "Sopranoed"

Any additional comments?

I read the reviews, so I was prepared. How could I pass up the last book whose dialogue/banter/cadence reminded me of The Thin Man and His Girl Friday movies. He brings back almost all the previous characters and then fades to black. How can you not love the way it ended? Outstanding narrator, gonna miss the series, but what a way to go! Well Done!

I Really Hope this is not the Last Book

Where does Undead to the World rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It ranks among the the most entertaining. It is fast moving and fun to read/listen to.

What did you like best about this story?

Love the back and forth between Jace and Charlie.

What does Johanna Parker bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She is great. She sounds natural, like she's not just reading a book.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

If this is the last book, I am very upset at the ending. A last book should have wrapped up all the strings not leave a cliffhanger. Most of the time it kept me interested and laughing.

Any additional comments?

If this is the last book.... I'm pulling for Charlie.

Excellent continuation

With the last book ending on David telling Jace he was trapped by the wizard who originally pulled her from her reality, and that it was a trap for her as well. Getting yanked into a full blown expansive alternate reality built entirely by said evil wizard makes perfect sense if you consider she also has fought evil comic book obsessed killers, has been to both a Japanese hell and a virtual reality version of heaven, fought the same wizard from blending his world with the one she currently resides in and has had repeated headbutting contests with extradementional gods.....it actually makes perfect sense.





*spoilers below*






Yes, it ends on Jace not verbalizing her decision to either stay in Throppirelem or go back to her home world, but that makes sense as well. I prefer to think she chose to stay because she has developed much stronger personal attachments to the people in this new world than she ever did in her homeworld. But other readers may have wanted her to go back home.

I think this was a great conclusion to the series.

Perfectly suited :)

I was a little wary of what this last book may be in the end due to many of the reviews I read prior to listening to this one. Upon listening to the last sentence of this story, I couldn't help but smile. The ending was perfectly suited to this series :) I couldn't have imagined a better way for this to go. No spoiler here. You'll just have to see what you think for yourself. I say worth the price or credit. Narration was perfect all the way through. I listened to all 6 books over a 4 day period and found them thoroughly entertaining. Very pleased.
