An amazing addition

Revisado: 02-15-22

Superb! Another great Mountain Man novel. It's great to see Gus again and great to see more of the beginning of the zombie uprising. Blackmore does a great job of really bringing out the loneliness of his character, the mourning of loved ones in a world where holding on to grief can get you killed. I love that you can really feel the horror Gus feels when facing the undead and just his own existence at his new life. The choices he makes gets on my nerves at times, but that makes it feel more real as well. As an avid zombie lover who consumes pretty much everything that contains the undead, I can honestly say The Mountain Man series is easily one of the best zombie stories to come out in quite a while.
A+
10/10

Love the story

Revisado: 11-02-21

The story is well written and honestly one of my favorite zombie novels. The performance leaves a lot to be desired, not sure why he chose to make every male sound like that but it's whatever I suppose. Still worth it though.

Skip this

Revisado: 10-13-21

Listen. I'm a super fan of zombies. As a person who listens and reads a lot of zombie novels and series, this one is at the bottom of the list for so many reasons. I cannot understand the praise for this one.

The main character, Adrian, is extremely unlikable. The author adding scenes about outside parties seeing him as great and totally cool makes him even more unlikable. And throughout the entire four books he doesn't get better.

Just another boring "ex military dude who is super bland but definitely somehow the best at everything" zombie novel.

Started this with low expectations

Revisado: 09-16-21

Absolutely blown away by this series. I listen to a lot of zombie/ post apocalyptic fiction so my standards are all over the place when it comes to the good ones. This series is amazing. sometimes it drones on a bit, but you can tell that that is Zed's nature. I love the characters, all of them. The author also didn't try to over use military terms which is a definite win in my book.

Only criticism would be the mispronouncing of a few words which are easier to look past than one would think, but definitely a great listen.

If you're looking for a horror story skip this

Revisado: 07-29-21

This was presented to me as a horror story. It's just a boring novel that pretty much tries to be more than it is. All of the twists and turns are incredibly predictable and doesn't add anything to the story at all. Really wanted a horror novel but got played by choosing this.

Just Alright

Revisado: 07-15-21

The story was a bit boring and easy to guess the ending. Disappointing considering the reviews I've heard and seen for this book. It's just okay really. Nothing special and not well written enough for me to check out the authors other works.

Not that good...

Revisado: 06-30-21

Really cliché. Ex military dad trained his kids to shoot just like most zombie novels out there. Nothing about this novel is original, surprising and is pretty boring.

A character death is so bland and does not inspire any sadness since the characters are so flat.

Also not a found family, adoptive family. Big difference.

Oof

Revisado: 05-20-21

It was a struggle to get through this book. What is up with the hyper fixation on flatulence? Seriously. The author spends so much time over describing them and brings them up so much. Is it a fetish or something. Also, this book continues the horrible misogyny. It's like a man from the 50's decided to include inept women into his story. And the only useful one dies. Of course.

Fun but weirdly sexist

Revisado: 05-13-21

All in all fun, will probably finish the series, but I wouldn't listen again.

Fun story and the main character is just weird enough to be funny. The sexism is constant and really jarring. The women are 'scary when angry' and cannot shoot or function when stressed (?) It's just weird when things are progressing nicely just for some dumb misogynistic line to pop up.

Preformance amazing. Story not so much.

Revisado: 04-20-21

I suppose the authors forward where he says unlike zombie fiction/media, his zombies were a man made virus not magic really sets up how this story went for me. Perhaps even set me out on the wrong foot and tainted my view right off the bat.

Most, if not all, zombie consumers know that 9/10 stories have the virus as man made catastrophe, so I'm unsure why this guy thinks he's made something ground breaking. This whole series reads like the usual "military guys and scientist ladies" cliche, so the the whole 'not your typical zombie story' intro feels really forced and unnecessary.

R.C. Bray killed it, as always. His reading was the only thing that made me care enough to finish the books.
