Civil war looms in the Bobiverse in this brand-new, epic-length adventure by Audible number one best seller Dennis E. Taylor. More than a hundred years ago, Bender set out for the stars and was never heard from again. There has been no trace of him despite numerous searches by his clone-mates. Now Bob is determined to organize an expedition to learn Bender’s fate - whatever the cost. But nothing is ever simple in the Bobiverse. Bob’s descendants are out to the 24th generation now, and replicative drift has produced individuals who can barely be considered Bobs anymore.

Taylor Delivers Again
Revisado: 10-04-20
The Bobiverse continues to be the best scifi series out there. Taylor takes the plot paths into new and interesting places, he rarely takes the story in a predictable direction.
As always, Ray Porter delivers a stellar performance. One of the few readers I have come to specifically look for.

Good and evil play their game to determine whether humanity gets a second chance, and their pawns are the living and the dead.

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Yes, this is a good series with several sub plots that swirl around a larger main plot that just keeps building and building.
Would you be willing to try another book from Chris Philbrook? Why or why not?
Yup, I intend to read Tesser as it looks like it has a very interesting premise.
Have you listened to any of James Foster’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Only the AUD series. He is killing it!
Was Wrath worth the listening time?
Yes it is!
Any additional comments?
To me, the Wrath part is too short. I would have liked to see some more righteous vengeance for the deaths that were caused.

Best in the series so far!
Revisado: 07-21-16
If you could sum up Midnight in three words, what would they be?
Boom! Got ya!
What other book might you compare Midnight to and why?
I really have no idea. This series stands alone in my experience.
Which scene was your favorite?
The factory blowing up.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Zombies are not the only thing hunting them!
Any additional comments?
Best in the series so far. I really enjoyed this book in particular. Sean is a great character opposite of Adrian.

Adrian's piecemeal life on campus since "That Day" has been a struggle. Retrieving supplies from local neighborhoods filled with the walking dead has been dangerous for him, but he's stayed alive by being a little smarter than the other survivors, and a lot faster than the roaming, hungry zombies that have overtaken his home town, and the world.

More survivors!
Revisado: 07-21-16
If you could sum up Alone No More in three words, what would they be?
Brutal part one.
Would you be willing to try another book from Chris Philbrook? Why or why not?
Yup, I plan on trying out Tesser. Chris has been a responsive author to my letters and the stories he tells are ones that I have been wanting to read.
Which character – as performed by James Foster – was your favorite?
Abbi!
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
the first few sections describe events where people don't make it. These scenes are brutal.
Any additional comments?
Still a great series! This one introduces the main story arch.

For the first time, the Internet phenomenon is now in print! Beheading a zombie isn't easy in a world where you're more afraid of the living than the dead. Adrian Ring's simple life is thrown into chaos when the world is ripped apart by a plague of undead and legions of desperate survivors. Retreating to Auburn Lake Preparatory Academy, Adrian attempts to rescue friends and family on the way while dancing around his impending insanity over who and what he left behind, and evading maniac survivors.

That main character...
Revisado: 07-21-16
Would you consider the audio edition of Dark Recollections to be better than the print version?
No idea, only bought the audio version.
What did you like best about this story?
This book sets up a cool situation. I enjoy a good retelling of the fall of society by a zombie horde.
Have you listened to any of James Foster’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Nope. But I have listened to other readers and James is one of the most enjoyable I have listened to.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No strong reaction.
Any additional comments?
It's a long series, eight books! Also you should know that the main story is one that involves divinity and the battle between "good" and "evil". This series is not strictly about zombies and the apocalypse.

A filler book
Revisado: 07-21-16
What did you like best about In the Arms of Family? What did you like least?
There is a section about the fall of one of the holdings. I enjoyed the descriptions and the mystery that it introduced.
Would you recommend In the Arms of Family to your friends? Why or why not?
I would recommend it. It does continue the story and introduces some additional issues that Adrian will need to overcome later on.
What does James Foster bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He is a great voice actor. You can tell he worked on first reading the story and then deciding how to read the character's parts. Top notch!
Was In the Arms of Family worth the listening time?
Yup!
Any additional comments?
Nope

A sinister darkness has finally cast its long shadow across the world, and Adrian Ring now suspects he's at the center of the maelstrom. And he's not alone. Even overseas, his friend Kevin is somehow standing at his side. At Auburn Lake, Adrian and his adopted family finally understand that the dreams they have suffered since the end of the world are far more than restless imaginings. When a thousand mindless dead arrive holding books, can it be anything but a message from beyond the grave?

This book seems much more mild than book 2 or 3. I think this one is an introductory for future events in the next book. I'll find out!
Thus one contains some good character building and a great story about Walter the survivalist.
